Default growing GIANT SEQUOIA- Sequoiadendron giganteum in India

Flourish might be a 'generous' word - but they "might" survive. Actually,

somewhere in the east, perhaps at the Arnold Arboretum in Boston, they
actually have been able to make the Sequoia's close cousin, the Redwood
grow.

Actually this "Sequoia's close cousin" has got a name, which is Sequoia.
Lets please not confuse things just for the sake of confusing them.

Also actually, the Arnold Arboretum boasts of a big Sequoiadendron (itself),
which however was not grown there, but transplanted in 1972 from Chestnut
Hill (nearby)
