Laubenfel’s araucaria

(Araucaria laubenfelsi)
Araucaria laubenfelsi

This incredibly rare Araucaria is endemic to New Caledonia and only grows in the high mountains of the southern portion of the island 1,400 meters or 4,600 ft elevation. It Will grow to 50 meters in its native range, probably much less in cultivation. It starts producing cones when only 13 ft tall and is one of the more stunning Araucarias. This is seldom available in cultivation. It requires ample moisture but like most Araucarias, needs to dry slightly between waterings to avoid root rot. We sell these incredibly rare trees in 5 gallon containers and measure 2' tall. Other sizes are available
