Since it is extremely rare that the Sequoia Taxodiaceae Family Squares are located in Croatia, in our town Slatina, and have been able to preserve themselves for so many years (since 1807.). We have decided to explore the conditions of breeding and compare them to those in which it usualy grows in its natural habitat where the largest parks of Sequoia Sierra are - Nevada, California. After the research we concluded that the local climatic conditions present in the town of Slatina and the soil composition are within the range necessary for the growth and development of the tree. In addition, we have been involved in the project "EPIcentar Sequoia Slatina" co-financed by the European Union to help with some measurements and observations of the revitalization of protected natural heritage, because the Seguoia from Slatina deserves adoration.
