Farm Forestry New ZealandRedwood timber, like cedar, is light, stable and durable, suitable for cladding and exterior joinery but not suitable for structural applications. There are two species of redwood from North America grown in New Zealand, the giant sequoia and the coast redwood. Giant sequoia is a cold-climate species whereas coast redwood, from the fog belt of California, suits Northlands humid subtropical climate.
