Apparently this type of tree is called a weeping sequoia.
I don’t know much about it except that I see many intriguing examples all over
Seattle – their long, drooping branches are monstrous, messy and strangely
humorous. Last year I couldn’t resist sketching one I saw in Maple Leaf, and today I couldn’t resist this one in
Wedgwood. I happened to have a freshly sharpened graphite pencil in my bag –
just right for all those feathery fronds. 
 
 

That's quite a saggy-looking tree. Nicely done!
