That one in the middle all the way to the back looks just like my Cycad that I bought for $10 at Wal Mart. Is it really a King??

Just your average Sago.........That one did arrive from Wal-Mart a few days ago , Just can't seem to walk past them without buying one more 😆

That is a great looking selection of plants. I hope to have a collection like that one day.

Thanks Wes!
Most of my Cycads will be two years from seed this Summer. They do really well in a GH, just wish I had started this 20 years ago 😆

Steve, sorry, thought I'd already replied. Thanks for that link. I've bookmarked it for when my pups get to be baseball size.
Ever seen a Sago where they DIDN'T cut them off? Wonder what it would look like.

If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.

Barb - Been trying to find a decent habitat photo...........
I think they look nice when allowed to develop as nature intended, but from a landscaping perspective, most people seem to prefer a large single trunk.

"most people prefer a single trunk"...
isn't that funny. Here's me trying to train cotoneaster as Standards. Yet my Sago I'll let go wild with its pups hangin around like at the dog park 😆
I've looked at Sago pics on Google Images, can't find even ONE where they've let it go wild.
Thanks
Barb

Wow, those pups are almost killin' momma. Wow, talk about wild.
Amazing how the little guys grow so tall, yet the parent doesn't "stay above".
I think I'll leave my pups on. This'll take forever but I can wait 😉
Thanks for the link, Steve.
