Celery pine
Celery pine is small to medium-sized trees, reaching 10 to 30 m tall, or sometimes small shrubs. The main structural shoots are green for 2–3 years, then turn brown as the bark thickens. The leaves are sparse, tiny, scale-like, and only green (photosynthetic) for a short time, soon turning brown. Simple phylloclades are rhombic, and compound phylloclades are subdivided into leaflet-like phylloclades. The seed cones are berry-like, with a fleshy white aril. Species occur mainly in New Zealand, Tasmania, and Malesia in the Southern Hemisphere.
