The small adult branches of hoop-pine or Moreton Bay-pine, commonly called "aurcuria" in the potpourri trade, bear scale-like leaves, 6-15 mm long, that are narrowly triangular, slightly curved, keeled on both sides, and crowded in spirals.
Araucaria cunninghamii is native to Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, and Australia but cultivated in the tropics.
