There are only two redwood trees. Redwood trees are considered rare trees for the purpose of the rare trees minimap icon
. The rare tree icon is shared with several other trees, so the icon does not necessarily indicate a redwood tree specifically.
As the trees are very large, there are two levels built around it with scaffolding (one for the Farming Guild). The first level is accessible via rope ladders at the very bottom, located on the east and west sides of the tree. The second level is accessed via carved entrances, located on the side closest to the other redwood tree. Each side that does not have a carved entrance has 2 sections to chop, totaling to 12 sections per tree and 24 sections overall. Uniquely, players can only obtain clue nests from redwoods, not seed, ring, or egg bird nests; this also means that the strung rabbit foot and Woodcutting cape perk have no effect when chopping redwoods.
The Farming Guild tree sections are located right next to a bank deposit box, making the location a good option when the Woodcutting Guild trees are often crowded or the invisible +7 skill boost is not needed.
Players have a 1 in 11 chance for every log chopped of depleting a section of a redwood tree. Redwoods have a respawn time of 199 ticks or 119.4 seconds. A roll to receive a log is done every 4 game ticks when chopping. The chance to successfully chop is affected by the axe used and Woodcutting level, better axes and a higher woodcutting level increases the likelihood of successfully receiving a log.[1]

There are several mentions of redwood trees by NPCs around Gielinor as well as in books. The following text is transcluded from Gielinor's flora - trees. The information found within the book is more often than not just flavour text, and does not reflect their properties or uses within the game itself.
