Related introduction of cycad:

Cycas is a dioecious plant. It has many flowers, but they are not real flowers, but spores used by cycads to reproduce. When men and women combine, they will grow fruit. We can see that the flowers of Cycas have actually borne fruit. Cycas are called gymnosperms, in fact, because the seeds do not wrap any organs for reproduction.

Generally, the annual fruit maturity of Cycas is about 10. If you don't see the fruit of Cycas, then either the growth time and year are not enough, there is not enough nutrition to breed seeds, or there will be no seeds in the north and cold places, or the male and female plants of Cycas don't meet together, so there will be no fruit.

Although the success rate of sowing and propagation of Cycas is relatively high, its growth rate is really slow. It takes at least 4 to 6 months to propagate with the fruit of Cycas, and it takes at least 2 years to transplant the newly grown Cycas. In its childhood, the growth of Cycas was really slow, which is why it is called "Millennium Cycas"!
