Not trying to be facetious. but maybe look out for monkey puzzle trees in your area? If you're in the PNW, there a few around: https://www.monumentaltrees.com/en/usa-araucariaaraucana/

Apparently there are quite a few in the Portland area. Someone has been mapping them.

I used to ride my bike around every late summer gathering them from people's lawns.
The trees have sexes, so one has to find the female trees.
There are quite a few in Portland, and all relatively the same age because they were given away at the lewis and Clark exposition of 1905 by a representative from Chile.
