'During the 2001 Tree Survey I did for the Dunedin City Council I evaluated over 2100 trees, 47 of which were Norfolk pInes. This tree no. 1260 is the highest found although not the largest in girth. This is not the southernmost Norfolk pine found, there are several growing on the coast near Brighton and there may be one at Bluff (Southland). Some smaller specimens were planted in Queens Park in Invercargill in the late 1980's as well. Baird 2001
