FAST GROWING – TOLERATES COASTAL SUN

This versatile green cycad is a mainstay of every cycad collection.  There’s not a cycad enthusiast who’s not growing this species.  It is native to the Eastern Cape in South Africa.  There it is found in various regions with differences in plant appearance from area to area.  Thus, there are probably about six varieties of this species, all a bit different.  So, when you see an Encephalartos natalensis in a garden, it may look a bit different than the next one you see.  Trunks get up to twenty feet in a century or two.  Leaves are five to eight feet long, straight or minimally arched, and more compact in bright sun.  Growth rate is medium to fast.  I’d consider this a medium to large species.  Cold tolerance is about 22 degrees F.  The  plant on special is in a 25 gallon container and has a caudex that is 12 inches wide and a similar height.  We have a few others of similar size in this collection.
