Botanist needed

Yes, Norfolk pine. Too bad I'm too late to look all smart and stuff.

They won't get that tall as long as you don't plant them in the ground, but they do get quite tall. My mom used to have several until they got too tall to keep inside the house.

Yup, that's what it is.

I had one in my front yard. It was about 60 feet tall but was too close to the hous so the landlord took it out. It had a few annoying habits like when the pine cones got ripe they exploded and the seeds with a shrp end went flying everywhere. And the "leaves" dropped quite a bit year round.

Very pretty though. Mostly while they are young.
