Summary

The distinctive thick, ropy bark of the coast redwood (Sequoia sempervirens) can grow up to 12 inches thick on mature trees. It’s bright red when freshly exposed, then weathers to a pale reddish gray. Its thickness and relative lack of resin make the bark nearly impervious to flame, an important self-preservation feature in an ecosystem that frequently experiences fires.
