What kind of tree is this??

Hi all, I've seen this tree on the Lulu and Georgia website and, for the life of me, can't figure out what it is. Anybody know? It's soooo cool.


For some reason, the site's not letting me upload the image, but here's a link to the Lulu page.

    Needed a photo from you, but I went to the outdoor furniture section and I think I am seeing what you like. Betting it is curly willow.

    Are you able to upload a pic?

    For some reason, it's not letting me upload picture, but I was able to in the general forum. Here is a link to the Lulu page where I saw it. https://www.luluandgeorgia.com/collections/bright-and-inviting

    Just a word of caution, I have an indoor Norfolk Island Pine. While I love it, it's a bit of a tropical plant and a high maintenance plant because it needs a lot of humidity which indoor houses tend not to have thanks to our HVACs.


    Instead, I have to carry it gently into the bathroom EVERY DAY and mist it thoroughly with a plant mister till it's covered in water droplets. If I don't do this, it gets very droopy and sick looking.


    Some online forums suggest also keeping it sitting on a tray with water that will help keep its surrounding air more humid, but this doesn't work for me.

    NIP gets too large for a houseplant after a few years. At that point you can either try to manage it with pruning or get rid of it and buy another starter plant (a popular Xmas live plant for some odd reason). I quit buying them due to their size after a few years.


    In the tropics they are very large trees (200 feet). The ones I have seen in Miami and Asia tower over a lot of other trees.

    Sometimes trees shown on sites like that are cut from something outdoors and stuck in a pot for the photoshoot.

    Another vote for a Norfolk Island Pine. They really are gorgeous, especially when new from the nursery, but still nice if they like their spot in your home.

    Funny, I was looking at rugs on there, here’s our little buddy again:

    Well, now I'm not so sure! It seems odd they'd use such a sickly looking NIP, altho that's how they end up looking in most people's homes!

    Just to be clear......the tree in the website photo is NOT a Norfolk Island pine (Araucaria heterophylla) !! It only has a very superficial resemblance.

    I'd guess it is not a real, live, growing tree at all. It looks like nothing I can ID and these photoshoots often use cut stems from outdoors, plastic plants and other artificial "stage settings" to set the mood.

    That pine is a gorgeous tree. But although it's difficult to discern from the image, it looks to me as if the tree is deciduous rather than coniferous.

    I noticed this in Gwyneth Paltrow's new house. Is this the same tree? It's structurally similar. Very beautiful.
