-Araucaria excelsa, R. Br. Norfolk Island Pine. Figs. 300-303. Plant light green: branches frondose, the Lvs. curved and sharp-pointed, rather soft, ⅓-½ in. long, and densely placed on the horizontal or drooping branchlets. Norfolk Isl. F.R. 2:411.—The commonest species in this country, being much grown as small pot specimens. A blue-green form is cult, as var. glauca, (or A. glauca). It is a form in which the tips of the growths are white when young; has recently been intro. under the name of &quot;Silver Star.&quot; It is a most beautiful plant and sure to have a great future as a market plant. There is also a strong-growing, large variety, with very deep green foliage, var. robusta, Hort. Var. virgàta, Hort., primary branches with no secondary branches, or very short ones. In its native wilds A. excelsa reaches a height of over 200 ft. and a diam. of even 9 or 10 ft. The solid, globular cones are 4 or 5 in. diam. F.S. 22: 2304-2305.—An excellent house plant, and keeps well in a cool room near a window. In summer it may be used on the veranda, but must be shaded. The timber is used for ship-building.
