Giant Weeping Sequoia

This uniquely shaped tree looks like it comes right out of a Dr. Suess book.  It has a fine textured, graceful, weeping shape, enjoys full sunlight and will grow in most soils. It requires low maintenance, moderate water, and is sure to be a conversation point in any landscape.
