This Monkey Puzzle Tree is about 4 years old and a Very Healthy Plant
I bought it 3 3/4 years ago from a person in Washington State that has a few mature (60-70ft tall) Monkey Puzzle trees that drop seeds and grow,they sell the seedlings
It is right at 17" tall and the lower branches are 26" - 28" across
I added some info about these trees below
Please email or call me with any questions
Araucaria araucana (popularly called the monkey puzzle tree[1][2] or monkey tail tree) is an evergreen tree growing to 40 metres (130 ft) tall with a 2 metres (7 ft) trunk diameter. The tree is native to central and southern Chile, western Argentina, and southern Brazil. Araucaria araucana is the hardiest species in the conifer genus Araucaria. Because of the species's great age it is sometimes described as a living fossil.
Araucaria araucana is the national tree of Chile.The leaves are thick, tough and scale-like, triangular, 3?4 cm long, 1?3 cm broad at the base, and with sharp edges and tip. They persist for 10?15 years or more, so cover most of the tree except for the older branches.
It is usually dioecious, with the male and female cones on separate trees, though occasional individuals bear cones of both sexes. The male (pollen) cones are oblong and cucumber-shaped, 4 cm long at first, expanding to 8?12 cm long by 5?6 cm broad at pollen release.
The tree is wind pollinated. The female (seed) cones, which mature in autumn about 18 months after pollination, are globose, large, 12?20 cm diameter, and hold about 200 seeds. The cones disintegrate at maturity to release the 3?4 cm long nut-like seeds, which are then dispersed by jays and squirrels
