Norfolk Island is a small island in the Pacific Ocean located between Australia, New Zealand and New Caledonia. With two neighboring islands, it forms one of Australia’s external territories.
The Norfolk Island pine, a symbol of the island pictured in its flag, is an evergreen tree native to the island and is quite popular in Australia, where two related species also grow.
