Cycas panzhihuaensis guizhouensis Cuphea topped with short stalks ofThis is our first offering of a new hardy cycad hybrid a cross of the Chinese Cycas panzhihuaensis and Cycas guizhouensis. Both cycad parents have been winter hardy for several years here, and we expect great things from this hardy cycad cross. We don't have any mature plants yet, but expect the offspring to reach 3' tall x 5' wide in 10 years for experimental gardeners.
