Cycas Palm Tree aka Cycas Revoluta


Cycas revoluta commonly known as Cycas Palm Tree is actually not a palm but belongs to  cycad. It grows best in sandy, well-drained soil, preferably with some organic matter. It needs good drainage or it will rot. It is fairly drought-tolerant and grows well in full sun or outdoor shade, but needs bright light when grown indoors.   But one disadvantage of its domestic use is that it is poisonous to animals and also to human beings.
