    Oooh Podocarps! Jewel-like conifer, 3 ft of densely held, shiny, abreviated needles, glossy green in summer, deepening to dark mahogony in winter, and in new growth. Fabulous in container or garden. Average soil conditions; bright light best; avoid prolonged drought. Stunning with other "rusty" party-goers. Frost hardy to 0F, USDA zone 7.
