Barb, Looks great! Like Wes said, let us know how they taste, also if you get any seeds too.

Nice Cycad photos from the other post, looks like everything is settled in and happy 8)

Man this thing must be on steroids this year 😯
While the fruit's ripening...here comes the third bloomof the summer!
Had to lean it against the Jade Tree pot, branches are bending over from the fruit weight.
Haven't tried to eat one yet...husband tried one last year, very very sour!

By the way, I planted KEY LIME seeds three times this year, not one germinated.
Maybe exports are irradiated (or something like that) when they cross the border ???!!!
Or maybe they were hybrids...whatever, I gave up.

Keep an eye out in Late Summer at "Lowe's" if you have one. Almost every year they have them (Key Lime) cheap.

Seems our box stores sell what folks down south don't want
Just a guess.
Haven't seen too much nice stuff...just the usual run-of-the-mill stuff like philodendrons, rhodos, dracaenas, etc etc.,
and a few palms (none of which I wanted).

One of these days I'm going to take a truck and go south of the border...
and clean out a nursery, ha ha. 😀
