The "cone" of a Norfolk Island pine. It's a relative of the Monkey Puzzle tree - which you can kinda see from the spiky leaf-needles around the cone.

I’m a terrible gift giver, but my sister is the most thoughtful gift giver I know. The gifts don’t usually cost very much, and they’re often not something I’d think to buy for myself, but they’re gifts I keep and use for many years. In fact, we don’t usually exchange gifts, but this Christmas she sent me a beautiful 3’ Norfolk Island Pine. ❤️ I included Roxie (& our spot cleaner 😅) in the photo just because.
