Wollemi Pine Seedlings – 2 tubes
$95.00

This Australian native conifer caused a sensation when it was discovered in the wilderness of Wollemi National Park in NSW as its closest known relatives are fossils from the dinosaur era. It belongs to the Araucaria family which features native conifers such as the Bunya and Norfolk Island Pine and has a similar pyramid shape when mature. The dark green textured foliage contrasts well with the interestingly textured dark brown bark to form a very distinctive feature plant for the garden. The seed cones are also an attractive feature. This tree can be temperamental in cultivation as it is somewhat susceptible to root rot so ensure that you give it a well-drained spot in your garden or grow it in a pot. It can make a great potted live Christmas tree given good care and a suitable large container.
They like an acid soil. Can handle frost down to -5. Likes a moist soil with good drainage, does not like dry spells or very windy conditions, so best planted in a sheltered position for best growth. Good in part shade. Feed with a low phosphorus fertiliser as they are phosphorus sensitive.
This is a pack of two Wollemi pine seedlings, growing in 50mm x 50mm tubes 120mm deep. Grow both yourself, or keep one and gift the other!
Plants are grown on outdoor benches to be sun, wind and frost hardy and ready to plant straight to your garden or bigger pots
