Tough and Trouble-Free.

One of the many strengths of Araucaria is its resilience. Surprisingly hardy, this tree thrives in the UK climate, handling cold winters and damp conditions with ease. Araucarias prefer well-drained soil and a sunny position, where they can enjoy ample light and space to develop their characteristic shape. Once established, the monkey puzzle requires little in the way of care, making it an ideal choice for those who want a bold, low-maintenance tree. With no need for pruning and remarkable longevity, this is a tree that will stand proudly in the garden for generations.

Seasonal Interest and Wildlife Shelter.

Beyond its striking appearance, the Araucaria brings year-round interest with its evergreen foliage that remains vibrant through all seasons. The dense, spiny branches create a natural sanctuary for birds, offering shelter and a safe haven, particularly during the colder months. In time, mature monkey puzzle trees may also produce large cones, adding further seasonal interest and a sculptural quality to the tree’s form. For gardeners looking for a unique, low-maintenance tree that combines historical intrigue with ecological value, Araucaria is a superb choice that brings enduring character to the garden.
