This is one of the most distinctive trees that are all along the coast.The tree is endemic (of course) to Norfolk Island, a small island in the Pacific Ocean; NOT from Norfolk, England.
It is called a 'star pine', beccause of its shape.
There is one about 65 metres high in our park and at Christmas it's decorated with hundreds of lights and the choir and orchestra gather under it to sing Christmas carols! Sometimes we see an impossibly tall one with a traffic cone on the top - how did that get there? One of the things the 'youths' do here for fun!
