Each cone has 30–50 spirally arranged scales, with several seeds on each scale, giving an average of 230 seeds per cone. Seeds are dark brown, 4–5 mm (0.16–0.20 in) long, and 1 mm (0.04 in) broad, with a 1-millimeter (0.04 in) wide, yellow-brown wing along each side. Some seeds shed when the cone scales shrink during hot weather in late summer, but most are liberated by insect damage or when the cone dries from the heat of fire. The trees do not begin to bear cones until they are 12 years old. </p><p>Trees may produce sprouts from their stumps subsequent to injury, until about 20 years old; however, shoots do not form on the stumps of more mature trees as they do on coast redwoods. Giant sequoias of all ages may sprout from their <a href="/wiki/Trunk_(botany)" title="Trunk (botany)">boles</a> when branches are lost to fire or breakage. </p><p>A large tree may have as many as 11,000 cones. Cone production is greatest in the upper portion of the canopy. A mature giant sequoia disperses an estimated 300,000–400,000 seeds annually. The winged seeds may fly as far as 180 m (590 ft) from the parent tree. </p><p>Lower branches die readily from being shaded, but trees younger than 100 years retain most of their dead branches. Trunks of mature trees in groves are generally free of branches to a height of 20–50 m (70–160 ft), but solitary trees retain lower branches. </p> <div style="clear:left;" class=""></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Distribution">Distribution</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Sequoiadendron_giganteum&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Distribution"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:A014,_Sequoia_National_Park,_California,_USA,_1998.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/69/A014%2C_Sequoia_National_Park%2C_California%2C_USA%2C_1998.jpg/220px-A014%2C_Sequoia_National_Park%2C_California%2C_USA%2C_1998.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/69/A014%2C_Sequoia_National_Park%2C_California%2C_USA%2C_1998.jpg/330px-A014%2C_Sequoia_National_Park%2C_California%2C_USA%2C_1998.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/69/A014%2C_Sequoia_National_Park%2C_California%2C_USA%2C_1998.jpg/440px-A014%2C_Sequoia_National_Park%2C_California%2C_USA%2C_1998.jpg 2x" data-file-width="800" data-file-height="533" /></a><figcaption>The <a href="/wiki/Generals_Highway" title="Generals Highway">Generals Highway</a> passes between giant sequoias in <a href="/wiki/Sequoia_National_Park" title="Sequoia National Park">Sequoia National Park</a></figcaption></figure> <p>The natural distribution of giant sequoias is restricted to a limited area of the western <a href="/wiki/Sierra_Nevada_(U.S.)" class="mw-redirect" title="Sierra Nevada (U.S.)">Sierra Nevada</a>, <a href="/wiki/California" title="California">California</a>.

Although the seeds can germinate in moist needle <a href="/wiki/Humus" title="Humus">humus</a> in the spring, these seedlings will die as the duff dries in the summer.

Due to fire suppression efforts and livestock grazing during the early and mid-20th century, low-intensity fires no longer occurred naturally in many groves, and still do not occur in some groves today. The suppression of fires leads to ground fuel build-up and the dense growth of fire-sensitive <a href="/wiki/White_fir" class="mw-redirect" title="White fir">white fir</a>, which increases the risk of more intense fires that can use the firs as ladders to threaten mature giant sequoia crowns.

Cones damaged by the beetles during the summer will slowly open over the next several months. Some research indicates many cones, particularly higher in the crowns, may need to be partially dried by beetle damage before fire can fully open them.
