Araucaria heterophylla, commonly known as the Norfolk Island pine, is an elegant evergreen tree noted for its symmetrical, pyramidal shape and distinctive tiered branches. Typically reaching heights of 15-20 meters in its native habitat, it is often grown as an indoor plant where it maintains a more manageable size. The tree's soft, dark green needles are arranged in a spiral pattern, creating a lush and visually appealing foliage. It thrives in well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade, demonstrating good tolerance to a variety of indoor and outdoor conditions. The Norfolk Island pine's graceful form and adaptability make it a popular choice for both indoor decoration and outdoor landscaping in mild climates.
