Looks like an outsize clubmoss!

Agreed! I like that about this genus. The parent plant is growing in California and is amazing - it is about 3-4 m tall and thriving in a cool, coastal climate. It was apparently propagated from material collected in the late 80s.

Salicacaea,
your Dacrydium is the Dacrydium nausoriensis, found and described by De Laubenfels 1969 in the Fiji Isles, and named as the Fiji Veil Stonecypress, as it belongs to the family of Podocarpaceae (Stone cypresses).

Thanks Zsolt.

Thank you for the pics !!

Jason, that is a cool one. Does Chad have any Dacrydium growing out at MBC ?

Or the other way around. In New Caledonia, I saw what I thought were lycopodia that were easily three feet tall (oops!, roughly a meter tall).

Perhaps, they were baby conifers, but I don't think so.

Eric - Yes, he has some. Mostly in pots. I think he has D. elatum planted out now. Some species may not like the higher pH down there.

Hmm, another genus new to me, interesting!
