Default Re: Cycas Revoluta

There are loads of Info on Cycas flushes,

Some say varigated fronds are result of the sun...put them in dappled shade.

Mine was all green till I fleece wrapped it last winter, in spring it looks like the below.

Some say no need to flush with water as the Cycas will flush without it.

I got my first Cycas last year and flushed the water for a month and got four new fronds. Would the Cycas have flushed without me using water...who knows. I need new fronds as mine are so ugly lol

The best way is to do whats working for you. But you really need to take it outdoors during the summer. They are ok triple fleece wrapped to -13 under shelter.

Lets see who gets the new fronds by september.

I will do the water treatment...I started it last night, three bowlfuls.
