Perhaps a little OT, but I thought it may give people something to ponder on when it goes on sale:

"The Wollemi Pine is one of the world's oldest and rarest tree species belonging to a 200 million-year-old plant family. It was known from fossil records and presumed extinct until it was discovered in 1994 by a bushwalker in the Wollemi National Park just outside Australia's largest city, Sydney. Dubbed the botanical find of the century, the Wollemi Pine is now the focus of extensive research to conserve this ancient species. Soon you will be able to grow your own Wollemi Pine and be part of one of the most dramatic comebacks in natural history."
