I'm guessing Norfolk pine?

Here is a link that might be useful: Norfolk Island Pine

I think you may be right Lou! Thanks! Why didn't I think of that?

Pam

Definitely a Norfolk. I have one growing in my front yard. I really like it. It was given to me about 10 years ago, in a large pot. I put it in the ground and it must be 10' tall already.

I saw some huge ones all around the area. I've always killed the Norfolk Pines in the house, so had not seen one that tall! Thanks y'all!

Pam,

I'm glad you asked! We saw these trees this summer while staying in Padre but I forgot to take a picture.

Necia,
Aren't they just the neatest looking trees? I wonder if they get decorated at Christmas time?

Pam

I had one for awhile. You can decorate them but not with much. Also, they need to be misted regularly so water is an issue. Also, lights tend to dry them out quickly. PJ

I had a ton of them growing behind my house in Hawaii. That was another time... another life. The people next door would top theirs and get a christmas tree to drag inside and decorate. The tree would grow two more trees out of the top next year. I don't know how long they kept that up. Norfolk pine is a dime a dozen out their. It has beautiful wood. I have a bowl turned out of it with real thin walls and oiled till it is translucent. The knots are large and spalted like a painting.
