Let the holiday spirit grow! Norfolk Island pines feature feathery, pine needle-like leaves that work to purify the air all year long. A seasonal centerpiece ideal for smaller spaces, the norfolk island pine tree (Araucaria heterophylla) is great for decorating as a Christmas tree. Place the norfolk island pine in a bright spot, but not directly in sunlight. Water it when the top inch of the soil is dry (about once a week) and ensure all excess water drain away. Since the holiday wrap does not have holes, use approximately half a cup of water, and adjust as needed for your environment. Do not let the plant sit in water or overly soggy soil. The shipping height is approximately 18-inches tall, measured from the bottom of the pot to the top of the plant. The norfolk island pine ships in a festive, 6-inch diameter decorative holiday wrap. To avoid water spillage, this container does not have holes. The norfolk island pine is a slow grower and is hardy in USDA zone 9. Give it a boost during the warm months of spring and summer with a general-purpose fertilizer formulated for house plants. Follow the instructions on the fertilizer package for the best use. When the plant outgrows the current container, it is time to report. To report norfolk island pine, gently remove it from its current container and place it into a slightly larger container. Fill in any empty spaces with new and fresh soil and water thoroughly.
