Cycads
The Cycad tree's distinctive, palm-like appearance, is because of their age. Considered "living fossils", Cycads flourished during the Mesozoic Era and have thrived virtually unchanged for over 250 million years, even outlasting the dinosaurs! While some Cycads are mistaken for palms, they are actually more closely related to the pine family.
Today, Cycads are found in the tropical, subtropical, and warm temperate regions. There are a variety of different cycads that grow very well in our climate and over the last few decades, we have grown these species locally at our farms ensuring that our customers get only the best quality from our nursery.
