Probably not Macrozamia miquelli seedling as they do have serrated tips of the leaflets.

More likely to be a communis or one of the communis family from New South Wales.

Let me clarify my prior post, miquelli DO NOT have serrated leaflet tips, about the only Queensland macrozamias which have serrated leaf tips are Macrozamia lomandroides from around the Bundaberg to Woodgate beach area with some hybrid populations along the Isis River south of Childers.

Your seedlings also have too wide a leaflet to be miquelli, all the species in that group of plants which includes longispina, miquelli, mountperriensis, macleayii, cardiacensis and serpentina have narrow leaflets.

since you know very well the species of macrozamia,I trust you! :winkie: , but in Europe have been sold many of these seeds were sold as macrozamia Miquelii, but it is not the first time that the sellers of seeds will give a kind mistaken for other :(

This is a Macrozamia miquelli seedling, the leaflets are narrow and wispy with no serrations on the end.

This is a Macrozamia communis seedling with wider leaflets and serrations on the ends.

Don't worry, Giuseppe. I got some Macrozamia Miquelli from Colin (palmtreesforpleasure) in Australia. They look the same as yours, too.
