Sequoia sempervirens, the tree known as the California redwood or the coast redwood has redwood in its common names but is one of several species known as redwood.
Sequoiadendron giganteum – Giant Sequoia or the Sierra redwood and the Metasequoia glyptostroboides is known as the Dawn Redwood.
The giant sequoia is the record holding species. "General Sherman" is a giant sequoia in California.

Second take is often better the first one is peahprs more polished in the sense of mentally prepared and giving what you wanted to give or say or do. Whereas, the second one, after the tension of the first is released, that performance is over, it’s easier to be who you are. I love the tea house atmosphere. The conversational style. The depths that are reached in meetings like these, where you hear each other above the din of background voices, and which contain moments, gems, that you’d like to remember. You all sound so real, like I was sitting at the same table! A lovely revealing candid podcast . I’m so glad you came back with this one, Dave.
Redwoods grow taller, but sequoias are larger overall. Sequoias don’t grow as tall as redwoods, but grow much larger in diameter; so the largest sequoia has more wood/weighs more than the largest redwood.
