Lepidozamia peroffskyana , a cycad native to Australia. Grows fast and is a large cycad if given enough water. It native range experiences 67-79 inches annually. Mostly in the summer and fall. Just like South Florida. :eek:

Zamia fairchildiana , a cycad native to Costa Rica. Got this as a seedling last year. It is now budding its third leaf and the caudex has already increased to 1 inch in diameter. :) Zamia psuedomonticola should be considered a synonym of Zamia fairchildiana according to Loran Whitelock. ;)
