Cycas revoluta 40L
Cycas revoluta (sago cycad), is an attractive plant native to southern Japan. Though often known by the common name of king sago palm, or just sago palm, it is not a palm at all, but a cycad. This very symmetrical plant supports a crown of shiny, dark green leaves on a thick shaggy trunk that is typically about 20 cm (7.9 in) in diameter, sometimes wider. The trunk is very low to subterranean in young plants, but lengthens above ground with age. It can grow into very old specimens with 6?7 m (over 20 feet) of trunk; however, the plant is very slow-growing and requires about 50?100 years to achieve this height. Trunks can branch multiple times, thus producing multiple heads of leaves.
