Re: Araucaria heterophylla

I must say, the wolemi pine is a beautiful plant! Quite unlike the
norfolk pine and other araucarias ive seen. It would be a spectacular
specimen indeed to have in the garden. Here in the monterey bay area A.
heterophylla grow well,  ive not seen them more then 30 - 50 ft  (
about 10- 15 meters) however this may be because they haven had
300+years to grow :). they do well here however sometimes their
branches brake if the winds strong enough. 
        I do know of a beautiful specimen of a monkey puzzle tree,
which is growing in one of the lawns of the Naval Post Graduate school.
It does however drop its nasty twigs, guarded by vicious spines ( not a
nice thing to sit or fall on to).
