    Hi,
    I am a student at Mount Si High School in North Bend, WA and I have a plant project due on Monday. I have all my plants identified and ready to go, except one conifer which remains a mystery. I have consulted with various sources including my teacher and they are all clueless.

    Here are some photos:

    Could my plant possibly be a Sequoiadendron giganteum?

    This picture, containing the leaves of one, bears a striking similarity.
