Recommended Posts

Offering up my Encephalartos Alt that has outgrown its pot. Would benefit from being planted in the ground or potted up to a larger pot at least. Has about a 8” diameter caudex. DM me if interested, $100 pick up in Orange County only

I will have to defer to those with more knowledge on those two Encephalartos species. It was purchased as Altenstenii a long time ago as a very young seedling; but could have easily been mislabeled.

The petiole reduces down to prickles which is consistent with altensteinii. Natalensis have clear petiole bases. 
 

That’s a good deal on the plant! This is a great full sun plant and will flourish in the ground.

Thanks for the knowledge! I wish I had a sunny out of the way spot for it as it’s definitely ready for the ground.
