    This was given to me by my mother-in-law. It seemed to be doing well growing new buds, it hasn't gotten any taller tho and now it seems like it might be wilting turning a little darker in shade and just not looking as healthy these days. I have been trying to figure out what it is so that I can try to help it... any one have any ideas?

    clnheart: I agree that you have a Norfolk Island Pine. Here on Anna Maria Island(just south of Tampa Bay, in Florida), they can and do grow as tall as 80 feet. Definitely a hurricane hazard. When they get this big, they have a tendency to break in half with high winds. Brittle, as it were.
