Dawn Redwood Metasequoia glyptostroboides is a fast growing tree in the conifer family Cupressaceae native to the Sichuan Hubei region of China. Metasequoia, along with Sequoia Sequoiadendron and several other genera, was transferred from the Taxodiaceae family to Cupressaceae using DNA analysis. It is the only living species in the ancient redwood genus Metasequoia but three fossil species are known.
