Araucaria heterophylla is known by many names. As a norfolk pine or Andes pine it reaches a height from up to 60 m in the wild. Indoor, on the other hand, the tree with the lively branches only reaches about 1,80 m. The pine has its origin in the Australian Norfolk Island and is relatively one, which doesn´t need much care. Although amateur gardeners, who like conifers should inform theirselves about the right trimming of these trees: Otherwise the pine will grow too high.
