lovecraftsgarden:Araucaria heterophyllaNorfolk Island Pine, Star Pine, Triangle Tree(via)This is so wild, the ones that we sell all have their uh floofy bits hanging down, whereas these are pointed up?? Apparently that is the difference between a mature tree (seen above) and an immature one (see below). The mature ones look fucking awesome, so ancient and fractal.According to wikipedia, their seeds are edible. Norfolk Island is apparently a tiny freaking island near New Zealand, their major town is called Burnt Pine. These things are tropical plants, hardy to zone 10 or 11. They are not liked in Florida due to their tendency to attract lightning and then fall over. -- source link
