Wollemia pine : Greenery whole year

The Wollemia pine is a rare evergreen tree. It belongs to the Araucariaceae family. This tree was found in Australia in 1994. Before that, people thought it was gone forever.

Gardeners like Wollemia trees because they stay green all year.

These trees grow to be very tall, about 25 to 40 meters. The Wollemia has an unusual shape. Its branches hardly ever sprout sideways. The bark feels spongy and looks brown.

The leaves are flat. They grow in a spiral pattern. Each leaf is 3 to 8 cm long and up to 0.5 cm wide. Young trees have lemon-green leaves. Older trees have olive-yellow leaves.

Wollemia trees make cones. The female cones are light green. The male cones are brown.

Wollemia pines are endangered. They only grow in a few places in Australia. These trees need protection from the government and the public.

A well-designed garden can improve your mood. It requires planning plant placement and color combinations. You should arrange plants that grow well together.
