Location: The Podocarpus is a conifer from tropical and subtropical regions. It is also known by the name of buddhist’s pine. In the female podocarpus, the colours of the receptacle which supports the fruits are spectacular: they are from red to purple going through to oranges and violet.

Watering: Abundant in summer and moderated in winter.
