A sign near its trunk gave its name (Monkey Puzzle Tree) and its scientific name (Araucaria araucana) and said that it was originally from South America.

Some of the branches of the Monkey Puzzle Tree (Araucaria araucana) were straight and covered in tiny leaves, while other branches were curved and covered in cork-screw patterns of leaves.
