If you use the search facility for 'Monkey puzzle' you'll find loads of threads.

Yes, it's of value, by which I mean it's of use rather than of monetary value in case you thought it was a goldmine!

 

Where are you/is it?

The tree is in Annan sw Scotland about 50ish foot. And 2-3 foot at base. Perfectly straight!

Ah well: I was getting ready to turn out and advise you that it was rubbish and you'd better let me take it off your hands.

But not from south of London.

 

Let us know what happens.

If you ring them just above and below the branches you will sell them to turners, small stuff though say 7" to 12" dia.
