Just noticed these this morning. The other seedlings from the same cone are perfectly normal IMG_7416.jpegIMG_7417.jpeg

Here are my thoughts. It is always possible that this is as you described, an aberrant leaflet that the plant will grow out of. If it persists, I wouldn't rule out that it could be a hybrid, even though it came from the same cone. If two sets of pollen were used on the same female cone, you could get different seeds. The last possibility is some sort of genetic mutation. I would rate the liklihoods of what is transpiring in the same order I listed them. It will be fun to see what happens with it over time. Keep the post updated as it grows.

I will and it’s most likely a mutation as the only cycads around were Z. Integrifolia where I found the seeds
