ENCEPHALARTOS AEMULANS GREEN, RARE CYCAD FROM SOUTH AFRICA

This species of green South African cycad is a medium sized mature plant with trunks up to about five feet. They are un-branched and have green leaves that are about five feet long. The leaves are straight and leaflets point toward the end of the leaf. In the wild stands in the Natal area of RSA, there are only about a hundred plants remaining. Shown here in the first row of photos are 4 to 5 year old band plants – very large for their container. The second row of photos show a huge boxed specimen and a 15 gallon at our nursery. The last row shows domestic plants and a close up of the leaflets.

We’re putting older band seedlings on sale. They’d be easy to mail order. In our area, this is a full sun plant with a cold hardiness into the low 20’s F. On this band size we only have a handful left.

We, of course, have other sizes of this species for sale.
