Norfolk Pine

The Norfolk Pine, or Araucaria heterophylla, is a graceful indoor conifer with soft, needle-like leaves arranged in whorls, resembling a small Christmas tree, making it a popular choice for festive indoor decor.

Light Requirement: Thriving in bright, indirect light, place the Norfolk Pine near a window with filtered sunlight. It can tolerate lower light conditions but benefits from exposure to moderate to bright light for optimal growth.

Watering Requirement: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the growing season. Water when the top inch of the soil feels slightly dry. Norfolk Pines prefer well-draining soil and should not be allowed to sit in water.

Mature Height: With a slow growth rate, Norfolk Pines can reach substantial heights indoors, often growing up to 6 to 10 feet (180 to 300 cm). Regular pruning can help manage its size and maintain a more compact form.
