I found someone in my area who sells wollemi pines (a small 30cm=0'12" tree costs 100€ already), and if I can get one it will be a gift to my grandpa. I've never consciously seen one of these trees in real life, so I'm excited.
yeah they have exaggerated leaflets the same type but so does the Coast Redwood and Bald Cypress,, Bald Cypress have the smallest then Coast Redwood then Dawn Redwood now this Wollemi Pine has the biggest
@@victoryfirst2878 no sorry i live in usa and i dont know anyplace that sells them. I see people online they are usually in australia or the uk that has the trees
its hard to believe this tree just grew in a small canyon area for the past 270 million years, I think that early european colonists must have chopped most of them down for firewood or lumber in the surrounding areas and this isolated canyon was all that remained because it was difficult to get lumber out of a canyon. just like the Alerce tree in Chile that was almost chopped down to extinction until a few scientists realized they were unique trees that only grew there
Wollemia nobilis is a conifer in the plant family Araucariaceae with its closest relatives being the Kauri, Norfolk Island, Hoop, Bunya and Monkey Puzzle pines, If they grow in Similar conditions you can grow them in your house Norfolk Pines are in many offices in containers. and they stay small but if you plant them outside they can grow over 50 meters in the right climate like one that never freezes
@@caballarius503I work on a couple properties that have mature Wollemi Pines, I collected about 100 seeds on Thursday last week. Going to try my luck with planting them soon
@@lunch2102 ahah good for you, it's now almost a year since I started looking for a way to find a tree or a seed and I did not found anything, I wish you luck! Would there be a way to pay you to have some seeds too?
What a sound idea to have an insurance site. So pleased to learn the new pines are doing well.

More likely the aboriginals of Australia chop them down for lack of knowledge
Did they all burn in the 2020 bush fires?
No
@@williamthomas1889 Happy to hear. I was so worried they would be lost forever. thank goodness
They were saved by many many firefighters. Without them they might have burned.
Somebody who knows of a youtube video about how to make Wollemi Pine seeds to grow?
Yes, there's a video called "Plant Profile: Wollemi pine"
