The monoecious or dioecious shrub typically grows to a height of 0.3 to 2 metres (1.0 to 6.6 ft). It flowers from January to December and produces cones with long spines. A. thuyoides is found heathland, sandplains and foothills and grows in clay or sandy lateritic soils.
Taxonomy
First described as Casuarina thuyoides in 1845 by Friedrich Anton Wilhelm Miquel,[4][5] it was assigned to the new genus, Allocasuarina, by L.A.S.Johnson, in 1982.[1][2]
gollark: Oh, and as all functions are implicitly cooperatively multithreaded coroutines, it is possible for a function to suspend execution and then have the parent edit the locals in it.
gollark: I agree. That's why Macron actually lets you edit the closure-bound variables of functions, and *preemptively* set their locals before they even run.
gollark: Yes it does. Anyway, ICMP(v6) perhaps?
gollark: Hmm. Aside from IRC, possibly SSH, and HTTP(S), what should Onstat monitor?
gollark: So you admit Macron has call/cc.
