Araucaria heterophylla
Though they may resemble a cold-tolerant pine tree, Norfolk Island Pines are considered tropical plants. As such, they are not cold hardy, prefer high humidity, and temperatures above 35 degrees Fahrenheit. Spritzing your plant once a week with a spray bottle should provide sufficient humidity.
- Sun:
- High light plants require full sunlight to assume their full potential, which means they need at least 6 hours of direct, bright light a day. The brightest spot in your home is the best place to put them.
- Water:
- This plant has medium or moderate water needs and requires watering once or twice a week. It needs moist soil throughout the growing season for optimum growth and flowering. Water this plant when the soil is dry to touch.
