    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    A cold hardy cycad good to Zone 9. This is one of the tallest cycads, approaching 50 feet in habitate. It has shiny green leaves and is quite fast growing. Not as cold hardy as D. edule.

    Basically this is your best bet if you're trying to grow a cycad outdoors in the northwest. Luster green evergreen leaves on what is often the definitive landscape accent plant of drive thru SoCal bank parking lots. Best in a container that can come inside during cold. Half sun.
