Norfolk pines are best suited as indoor plants. They need to be turned a few times a week so as to avoid phototropism. They enjoy temperatures around 60-70 degrees.

Well the ideal climate is cool and bright, it responds well to daylight temperatures ranging from 60-70 and slightly cooler at night. When it is actively growing with a fertilizer formulated for indoor foliage plants. Its not unusual for this species to be in a period of rest during the winter months.

Norfolk pine grows well in almost all moderate temperatures/climates but grows the best in cooler temperatures ranging from 60-70 degrees. The pine should have bright, but not full sunlight, and should be watered weekly.

If it is a houseplant, the first thing you should do is water it. Next, transplant it to the next size container. Keep the pine in a bright room, out of direct sunlight. It is acceptable to put the tree outside for the summer months, but treat for insects before returning inside.
