Mine is looking a little yellow, but I still love the shape.

    Same plant, another perspective.  I recently dropped another one in the ground where it will get more sunlight longer than this one.  I have one in my old garden which was getting mid-morning through mid-afternoon sun, so the hottest parts of the day and it seemed to do fine.  I was worried the one pictured wasn't getting enough sunlight, as it waited to flush so long that it dropped all it's foliage before it flushed.  It was after I put it in the ground, so it may have just been the transition of both moving from one home to another plus going into the ground.

    Mine have got good colour but they're very slow growing.

    Cycas debaoensis - 1st leaf of the year (late July) of the three I have in-ground. Growing out from under the shade of my Trachycarpus princeps. My hope is that any leaf-chewing insects ignore it and choose more tasty plants.😉

    Great looking Cycad Tracy! Try hitting with chelated iron. Should green it up fast! My experience with it is that it not only greens/blues up new flushes but older leaves as well. This is the product I have been using. Best $20 I ever spent👍
