Re: A new cycads season begin
Congrats Joseph. Self fertile? Or did it cross with something nearby?

Re: A new cycads season begin
Hi Stan This is the first cone after transplanting, Therefore I do not pollinate. Kirkwood form is a very nice plant.
Look how this paucidentatus is pretty hairy

Re: A new cycads season begin
Josef,does this look like Dioon spinulosum to you? I've had it for many years. Gophers ate roots,shade..I had dig it up and put into a recovery pot. Its first flush in at least 3 years.

Re: A new cycads season begin
Josef,since you are using unblemished nursery pots..You might try Armoral on them to give them a gloss,deepens the black. I tried it..and when I moved that pot later,the side I didn't spray looks ugly! Armoral or other auto sprays that make plastic shine.
