Some interesting trees that can be found in the garden include "Sequoiadendron giganteum" (giant sequoia - the biggest tree species on earth), "Metasequoia glyptostroboides" (dawn redwood - thought to be extinct until 1948) and "Sequoia sempervirens" (Californian redwood - the tallest tree species on earth). Other trees of interest vary from olive trees ("Olea europaea") grown from cuttings taken from the Garden of Gethsemane, to various trees indigenous to southern Africa such as "Nuxia floribunda" (forest elder), to subtropical trees such as "Cinnamomum verum" (cinnamon).
