A majestic conifer with attractive, unusual dark green foliage and bubbly bark, the Wollemi Pine is one of the world's oldest and rarest trees. Paleontologists say that it is likely that dinosaurs crossed paths with the Wollemi Pine and may have eaten Wollemi leaves.

Discovered (1994) in a rainforest gorge within Wollemi National Park (Australia).
