Well, the "Norfolk Pine"(A. heterophylla) is such a common plant in
nurseries here in Monterey, California.
IM assuming they havent caught on in Denmark? But also A. araucana is
rare to find in nurseries, ive only seen a full grown specimen, and a
young specimen at the Naval Post-Graduate School in monterey (they have
a beautiful succulent and cacti garden of sonoran desert plants).
As for A. heterophylla, there are two tall specimens right near the
coast in Pacific Grove (ten miles south on the coast, from my city)
Very beautiful and doing well. The weather here doesnt get much below
28 degrees (normally!)
