It is located in Ladera Alta, close to Las Palmas, Gran Canaria. It there a Wikipedia article about it?

Hard to say at that distance but it looks to me like a Norfolk pine. (EDIT) Morphology doesn't mean much but a quick google (images) of Norfolk pine shows similar trees. 41.23.55.195 (talk) 14:05, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! I think this tree, and other similar trees that I saw in Teror, are indeed Norfolk Island Pines. --2001:4650:869A:0:E44B:AD5A:F990:FD8D (talk) 16:26, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
