I’ve been learning a bit about this palm that I found at work today doing a beautiful thing. It seems to be a sago palm, and it’s very toxic to dogs, so don’t try this at home. But also, truly, look at this big effort. Cycas revoluta # @plants
Large dark green palm leaved plant viewed from above, with soft looking round flowering part in the centre, looks like a floor mop. Small red seed just visible.
Close up of flowering part, red seed visible, looks even more like a woolly floor mop.

@plants I’ve walked past these for years and never seen one do this. Mysterious dinosaur timing is in play, clearly.

@plants some can be incredibly slow to grow (or in this case flower).
