We likely have more #MonkeyPuzzleTrees in #BritishColumbia than in all of their native #Chile.
On #VancouverIsland - almost all the #MonkeyTrees here are related to the first ones planted in #Holberg at #RonningsGarden - in a remote area near #SanJosefBay on North #VanIsle. It boasts the #WorldsTallest monkey puzzle tree. In 1995 it was measured at 77 feet—higher than a 7 storey building.
Monkey trees can live for thousands of years, if they are not cut. In Chile & other parts of #SouthAmerica its on #EndangeredSpecies list because of mass #deforestation.
