anyone having it as a room plant? i received one as a gift and i'm

trying
to
collect as much as care tips I can
anyone?


What kind of araucaria - A. heterophylla or Norfolk Island Pine? Most of

the
other species do not make successful houseplants. NIP needs bright,

indirect
light free from drafts with watering only to keep from drying out in

winter.
If possible, move to a protected location outdoors during summer and

provide
bimonthly fertilization.

This may help:
