Default Re: Monkey Puzzle Tree

I'll have to look and see if I can find an old catalog from the company I bought them from (because I've forgotten the name). They're not cheap, but the quality is excellent. You may have some issues in NS though. I think you'll find it too damp and cold for them to survive.

Found 'em. $24.95 per tube.

They still have the description as "long spidery branches (or monkey tails?!)." I told them 20 years ago, the tree gets it's name from the leaves. The monkeys can't figure out how to climb the branches. Oh well.
