The River She-Oak, Casuarina cunninghamiana, is a robust evergreen native to Australia, growing up to 115 feet tall. It sports delicate needle-like leaves and bears woody, conical fruit. Hardy in zones 9-11, it thrives in full sun and well-drained soils, tolerating drought and frost. Ideal as a windbreak or for erosion control, its fine foliage rustles distinctively in the breeze, adding auditory charm to landscapes.
