Araucaria bidwillii, the bunya pine, is a large evergreen coniferous tree in the genus Araucaria, family Araucariaceae.
It is native to south-east Queensland with two small disjunct populations in northern Queensland’s World Heritage listed Wet Tropics, and many fine old specimens planted in New South Wales, and around the Perth, Western Australia, metropolitan area.
It can grow up to 30–45 m. The Bunya Pine is the last surviving species of the Section Bunya of the genus Araucaria. This section was diverse and widespread during the Mesozoic with some species having cone morphology similar to A. bidwillii, which appeared during the Jurassic. Fossils of Section Bunya are found in South America and Europe

A huge, tall tree.

Please validate.


I would have thought of Araucaria bidwillii but leaves are a bit longer than usual !!

Do you mean this plant is from Lalbagh, Bangalore?


I think its Araucaria bidwillii
The name plate are you sure from the same tree.

Anyway, they put wrong plates on many trees.


yes sir I agree with your viewpoint. Tha plate could have been misplaced. This does look like bidwilii.


The name plate seems to belong to the same tree.
Could be wrong.
I will take Araucaria bidwillii as the id.
