Hidden in plain sight, miniature redwood forests in the Triangle

Downtown Cary is the last place you’d expect to find a miniature redwood forest – but tucked away behind town hall is a secret world of dawn redwoods with fluted trunks, and rippling roots, a striking red sight against a hillside curtained with green ivy. It looks like something out of a fairytale. In this episode, WRAL’s Hidden History reporter, Heather Leah, takes us on an adventure to spot redwoods around the Triangle.
