wow.... those are some sexy cycads 😯

I have no luck with them.. Ive only had a sago, and its only put out 3 leaves in 4 years, but its still alive. Im gonna donate it to the "conservatory" ( big tropical greenhouse), so it wont suffer anymore LOL.

Hello Tim
I think panzhihuaensis and taitungensis but I do not have the heart to try it here.
Best regards
Josef

Panzhihuaensis and taitungensis are some of the hardiest, along with good old Cycas revoluta. Here is one growing near Vancouver:

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

Beautiful Josef as always.
Amazing blue color.

Other than keeping them from falling over in the wind, may I ask why pots are sunk only halfway into the soil?
