GENERAL INFORMATION

  • Zamia Furfuracea, commonly called cardboard palm, cardboard plant, or Jamaican sago, is a cycad endemic to the coastal mountains and sandy, limestone sea cliffs of Veracruz, Mexico.
  • Cycads are seed plants that typically have a stout and woody trunk with a crown of large, hard, stiff, evergreen, and pinnate leaves.
  • Despite its common name, the cardboard palm is not a palm tree and its name comes from its growth habit, which is similar to that of palms.
  • An interesting specimen or accent plant for the front of tropical borders, rock gardens, and seaside gardens and also suitable as a container plant and can be grown indoors.
