What kind of araucaria - A. heterophylla or Norfolk Island Pine? Most of the
other species do not make successful houseplants. NIP needs bright, indirect
light free from drafts with watering only to keep from drying out in winter.
If possible, move to a protected location outdoors during summer and provide
bimonthly fertilization.

It is, I think you misread spam's posting. Norfolk Island Pine is Araucaria
heterophylla. The only other species I know of in that genus is araucaria
araucana(monkey puzzle).
