Beautiful and elegant cyca originating from China. Combines high resistance to cold (-10°C) with faster growth than other cycads.
Some specimens have a silvery underside of the leaf. Its reddish trunk and the compact arrangement of its leaves give it a special character in the garden. Good for long life in pots, its leaves are much less aggressive than those of the Cyca revoluta.
It requires little care and can live in direct sun or semi-shade. Do not water abundantly. In well-drained soils, it can withstand continuous rainfall. Slightly acidic soils.
