Description
Description

The Zululand Cycad (Encephalartos ferox) is a commonly cultivated cycad native to the southeast coast of Africa, where its stem is used as food. This is in woodland grassland or forest margins where there is plenty of shade. It is small and has a subterranean trunk. The green leaves are long, hard-textured, and have spine-tipped lobes. This is among the fastest-growing cycads around and propagates by suckers or seeds. Both male and female trees produce cones that are red. Female cones are ovoid and attached to the base of the plant, while male cones are cylindrical and attached to the stem of the plant.

Cycads, belonging to the order Cycadales, are ancient, palm-like plants that have existed since the time of the dinosaurs, over 200 million years ago. This ancient lineage makes them some of the oldest living seed plants. Cycads are characterized by a stout, woody trunk and a crown of large leaves.
