2013-07-02 00.01 — Two redwoods in a meadow biome.

2013-07-02 00.41 — A four section redwood with someone living in it.

2013-11-06 16.43 — Broken bark and heartwood falling after treecapitating a redwood.

The Redwood is a very large tree added by Natura. It is found in the Plains Biome. Its trunk is composed of three different types of wood. Blocks directly relating to the redwood are:

Redwood
Redwood Bark
Redwood Root
Redwood Leaves
Redwood Bark Door
Redwood Door

The trees come in different varieties. Some trees can have up to four trunk sections (places in which the radius shrinks by one block on each side) before the canopy, and the roots extend below the surface where the tree is planted.

The trees shown in the first picture only have three sections, whereas the one on the second have four. A redwood with more than 3-4 sections has not yet been found.

To grow this massive tree, one needs 49 redwood saplings. The correct sapling has this tooltip: "Plant these in a 7x7. It takes days to grow". Unlike other saplings, bonemeal has no effect on the redwood's growth. According to Minecraft Forums, a redwood usually takes 5-7 Minecraft days to grow, but some cases took 2 "real-life" days to grow; it's not known if this means the user had to wait 48 hours for the saplings to grow or if the user played once a day for two days, which resulted in the saplings growing. Others have left the game on for days and the tree hasn't grown.

Treecapitator will harvest this tree. Treecapitator is able to harvest the heart of the wood and bark of the tree, but be careful when using an axe on it with Treecapitator as it will likely destroy the axe and only remove a small section of the tree. If one wanted to hollow out the tree for any reason and wished to use an axe to speed up the process, they would have to sneak while chopping

Uses

The redwood bark cannot be crafted into planks, nor can the redwood roots. Redwood bark is used to craft a redwood bark door, which is used in making the redwood secret door.

The bark and roots are also very useful for making charcoal.

Trivia

It has the same sapling texture as the spruce tree, with a slightly different color scheme and a tooltip that reads "Plant these in a 7x7. It takes days to grow."

Bugs

Due to the size, using Treecapitator on these can cause the game to crash from the amount of entities and block updates occurring.
Sometimes a redwood tree can grow without all 49 saplings placed.
Using bone meal on the saplings planted in a 7x7 while in creative mode may grow more than one tree.

-To grow this massive tree, you need 49 Redwood saplings (note that there are 2 different types of redwood saplings) and patience. The sapling that you need will have a tooltip with "Plant these in a 7x7. It takes days to grow". To grow the tree, plant the saplings in a 7x7 square. Then you have to wait until the tree grows. Bonemeal has no effect on the Redwood's growth. The Minecraft forums say that it usually takes 5-7 minecraft days and you can sleep to skip the nights. But the forum also says that if you are unlucky, it may take 2 real life days. Some people on the forums say that if you leave 4 blocks of space on all sides of the 7x7 formation the tree will grow. But others have left the game on for days and the tree hasn't grown.

-[[Treecapitator]] will harvest this version of the Redwood (Giant Sequoia). Treecapitator is able to harvest the heart of the wood and bark of the tree, but be careful when using an axe on it with treecapitator because it will destroy your axe and only cut down less than half of the tree if you are using wood-diamond tools, so if you want to make a house in it you will have to punch your way through it, or crouch when chopping the tree. Also the redwood saplings were able to grow after planting just 6 saplings instantaneously.
