Im always looking for a light cardigan to throw on when I step out of the house, something that is big, breezy, and cozy, but wont fight with the sleeves of whatever shirt Im wearing or get too much in the way.

Sempervirens, meaning evergreen, is the specific epithet of the Coast Redwood, Sequoia sempervirens. The Coast Redwood is endemic to northern California and southern Oregon, and these breathtaking trees are some of the largest, oldest living things on earth.
