Cycas taitoluta Chrysogonum the clumps are topped withWe are pleased to offer Cycas x taitoluta, thanks to seed from Georgia palm guru Joe LeVert, who has 5 parent hybrid Cycas revoluta x taitungensis plants that have been in the garden since 2001 (1 female and 4 males yikes!). The hybrid plants, which are now 8' tall x 8' wide, push out new foliage weeks before plain Cycas revoluta and a couple of weeks after straight Cycas taitungensis.
