The Giant Burrawang (Macrozamia moorei) is a good ornamental plant that is native to Australia. It prefers subtropical or Mediterranean climates, either with adequate or inadequate sunlight. This makes it tolerant of drought and frost exposure. It is also called Cycad palm, Zamia palm, or Moore’s Cycad. This is among the tallest and most popular grown macrozamia but with a slow growth rate. The trunk is columnar-like while the leaves are arched and dark blue-green. On maturity, these leaves give it a dense, rounded crown. Like other cycads, it produces large and woody male and female cones that on ripping break revealing seeds that are orange or red.
Giant Burrawangs have an overall height between 19.7’-26.2’ (6-8 m) and diameter of 9.8’-15.75’ (3-4.8 m). The trunk of the Giant Burrawang has a diameter of 19.7”-31.5” (50-80 cm) with leaf lengths between 59”-98” (150-250 cm).
