But it looks cycad to me though. I have a big cycas plant at home which gives a lot of fruits, much bigger than Cycas revoluta, and the first time i experimented planting seeds took several months to emerge. Now, i just throw the seeds on the sides and they germinate like crazy. These are the big cycads being planted in big ladscapes as accent plants. It also produce branches. We use some leaves also for flower arrangements.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06044386271018560595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8244840933086642185.post-72048934423954801342010-01-18T16:37:55.834-08:002010-01-18T16:37:55.834-08:00Sorry, I am ignorant about twitter.

We are lucky they tell us the common name. Sometimes the even the common names given are wrong.<br /><br />I have added your link to my blog. Hopefully some garden bloggers can identify this plant. Good Luck!Autumn Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00818422090556602092noreply@blogger.com
