Description: Araucaria araucana (commonly called the monkey puzzle tree, monkey tail tree, piñonero, or Chilean pine) is an evergreen tree. The origin of the popular English language name "monkey puzzle" derives from its early cultivation in Britain in about 1850, when the species was still very rare in gardens and not widely known. The proud owner of a young specimen at Pencarrow garden was showing it to a group of friends, and one of them – the noted barrister and Benthamist Charles Austin – remarked, "It would puzzle a monkey to climb that". See a lovely specimen on display at Living with the Land at Epcot.
