Maybe one of the Araucaria species? Pretty fuzzy picture.

| Yea sorry about the fuzzy pic. I took this pic last week when I was in Los Angeles and never checked to see how the pic looked. |

By the way, if it is an Araucaria it wouldn't be hardy in zone 6.

| Can sometimes be damaged by frost even in southern California. |

| It can be grown as a houseplant though. It grows well indoors for many years. It can be grown in zone 8 here in Florida. We have coning, mature ones nearby. They are only damaged when temps fall to the mid teens.. |
