What does Sequoia stand for (symbolize) in the traditional culture of China? What is its significance?

Sequoia sempervirens, also known as Sequoia semper virens, is native to California, USA. It is an evergreen tree, which is over 2000 years old and is a symbol of longevity in the United States. This species was not planted in China in the past, so the symbolic significance of Sequoia in the traditional culture of China was not discussed. Sequoia planted in China has been introduced from abroad in recent years, and also planted in Zhejiang and Guangdong, but it has not formed a scale. Some people in our country will call torreya grandis, yew and yew redwoods. In fact, these tree species are different from mahogany. The redwoods mentioned by geographers are probably torreya grandis and other tree species, and are unlikely to be authentic American redwoods. This answer is only a personal opinion and is for reference only.
