In the middle of a busy roundabout in Harlow are two young Giant Redwood (Wellingtonia - Sequoiadendron giganteum). This location is one of several in Harlow featuring young Giant Redwoods, all of similar age (probably around twenty years old in 2010). It is quite refreshing to see a council being a little more imaginative with their tree selection.
