This South African cycad is the blue form of a spiny cycad with curved leaves that loves sun along the coast. It is medium sized mature and fairly cold tolerant to about 22 degrees. Leaves are nicely curved downwards and leaflets heavily lobed with spines. Leaf color is green, blue green and sometimes prominently blue as seen with the second plant below.
