The specimen

About this plant

Cycas is not a palm but a living fossil, and it shows: its rigid fronds, arranged in a symmetrical crown around a stocky trunk, look drawn with a compass. Each year a new crown unfurls over a few weeks in a tender green that later deepens.

Precious in its slowness, it suits a large entrance pot, a shaded patio or a pool bed, adding a graphic note without ever sprawling.

Note: every part is toxic to pets, especially the seeds.

Care

Caring for your plant

  • Watering

    Let it dry between waterings: every ten days in summer, monthly in winter. Overwatering is its only enemy.

  • Light

    Morning sun or bright filtered light. Afternoon full sun in Marrakech can scorch young fronds.

  • Feeding

    Diluted palm feed twice a year, spring and summer. Nothing in winter.

  • Temperature

    Tolerates down to −5 °C in dry soil. Bring potted specimens in below 0 °C.

  • Sculptural symmetry that hardly ever changes
  • Little water, little pruning, plenty of presence
  • Each new crown is an event
