I just looked those up. http://davesgarden.com/pf/go/1452/index.html One school campus I knew in Florida had those, and I happened to walk by one morning just as a cone fell to the ground. You're right: those cones are like coconuts or worse, and you wouldn't want to be near one when it falls. I don't recall seeing those trees at Disneyland, though. Since they look like pine trees, for my taste they don't have a very tropical look: I associate tropical plants with large leaves (taro, philodendrons, palms, etc.), and extreme weather plants with small leaves (pines, oaks, cactus, etc.). P.S.--Here are 2 pics I took of a Monkey Puzzle Tree in Holiday Park, Carlsbad, California. http://www.simnia.com/places/USA/CA/SDC/Carlsbad/HP/CA0509c_007_HP_pine.jpg [ Edited by: mbonga 2006-02-05 11:27 ] |
