Norfolk Pines
Norfolk island pines
Norfolk Island pines typically grow between 50-200 feet tall in their natural habitat. However, when grown as houseplants, they usually reach about 6-8 feet in height.
Norfolk Island Pines are generally considered non-toxic to pets like cats and dogs. However, ingestion of the needles or parts of the plant can still cause stomach upset or irritation in some animals. It is best to keep the plant out of reach of pets to prevent any potential issues.
Pines have special kind of roots that allow them to store water and their leaves to withold the water that's why they have longer leaves
Take your pines, cut off most the roots to cripple them, place a tin cup in a branch for loose change, and presto, your pines are much more begger!
Norfolk Island Pines are tropical plants that prefer high humidity and moderate temperatures, so they may not thrive in the hot and dry climate of Arizona. It's important to provide them with enough moisture and some protection from direct sunlight to help them thrive in this environment.
Surface roots are commonly referred to as shallow roots. These roots typically grow close to the soil surface and can be more visible compared to deeper roots. They are responsible for nutrient and water absorption from the top layers of the soil.
I believe it can as long as there is no direct sunlight on it. Misting with water occasionally could be beneficial too. Rich loose soil,large pot and good drainage a must. Norfolk pines have no problem with direct sunlight as long as they are kept moist. It will be fine on a screened porch, but it should have occasional sunlight. In their natural habitat, Norfolk pines certainly have direct sunlight, but this must be filtered if the pine is kept in a pot.
Not yet, but its chances of survival are not good. Norfolk pines are not designed to live in areas where frost occurs. If the weather is cold enough to cause the top to freeze, the tree's prognosis for the long term is rather grim.
Because the roots of the saguaro cactus are just below the surface.
