Care Guide for The Norfolk Island Pine

The Norfolk Island Pine is not an actual pine, but rather a relative of the monkey puzzle tree, and is often grown as a landscape tree in subtropical climates in North America (USDA zones 10 through 11) and is grown indoors elsewhere.

It has a very straight trunk and pleasingly symmetrical branches covered with short, inward-curving needles, also called leaves.

In other regions, the slow-growing Norfolk Island Pine is often grown as a live Christmas tree, often decorated with ribbons or ornaments.

Too often the tree is discarded after the holiday season, but it can easily be kept as a permanent foliage plant indoors or planted outdoors when it warms up in spring. The tree can be toxic to dogs and cats.
