A nice bag full of some scratchleyana seeds you don’t see very often. A beautiful understory cycas species from Papua New Guinea. Looking forward to growing a few of these ones!

I have no idea at all about cold tolerance. A couple of odds it may have one being a cycas species which most are quite tolerant of cool conditions and if it comes from highlands. And if it doesn’t Iam hopeful it has some cool tolerance being a cycas species!
