The expected gross gain corresponds to the amount (in the selected currency) that we will pay you back when your trees have been cut. It is based on the natural growth rate of a tree, which is estimated at around 2% per year. This expected gain is referred to as “gross" because it is calculated on the basis of the price of the tree excluding VAT.

### Red Cedar
**A symbol of longevity**, robustness, and natural nobility, the Red Cedar is a tree of majestic presence that evokes the great temperate rainforests of the Pacific coast. It is **a striking gift for someone who loves rare and imposing species**, or to mark an event you wish to anchor in time.
Its evergreen, aromatic foliage provides year-round protective cover for many nesting bird and small mammal species. Its robust growth allows it to quickly play a structuring role in mixed forests, enriching the ecosystems where it is planted and contributing to their resilience against climatic uncertainty.
The Red Cedar (*Thuja plicata*) is a large conifer native to the north-west coast of North America, where some specimens can live for more than a thousand years. Its naturally rot-resistant wood was once sacred to the indigenous peoples of the North Pacific, who used it to build canoes, totem poles, and dwellings.

Located in Brittany, our Ploërdut forest is made up of four individual plots that we acquired gradually over a period of time.
