The Araucaria araucana, better known as the Monkey Puzzle Tree, is one of the most distinctive and fascinating conifers you can grow. Native to the cool, temperate forests of Chile and Argentina, this remarkable tree has existed for over 200 million years, earning it the title of a true “living fossil”. Its striking whorls of tough, triangular leaves form a dramatic architectural shape, making it an eye-catching focal point in any garden.
As a CITES Appendix I listed species, the Monkey Puzzle Tree is internationally protected and considered of significant conservation value. Its rarity makes it a very special addition for plant lovers, collectors, and those wishing to grow something truly unique.
