Cycads are striking, architectural plants valued for their bold foliage and prehistoric appearance. These slow growing plants feature thick trunks topped with a symmetrical crown of glossy, fern like leaves, making them ideal for feature planting in modern and tropical style gardens.

Why Buy Cycad Plants
Cycads are popular landscape plants because they provide strong structure and visual impact throughout the year. Their dramatic foliage contrasts beautifully with softer planting such as grasses and flowering perennials. Cycads are also extremely long lived plants that require very little maintenance once established. Their drought tolerance and ability to cope with coastal conditions make them suitable for many New Zealand gardens. Whether used as a focal point in a courtyard or incorporated into a subtropical landscape design, cycads create a distinctive and timeless garden feature.
Where To Grow Cycads
Cycads perform best in warm, sunny positions where the soil drains freely. They prefer sheltered locations that protect their foliage from strong winds and heavy frosts. In cooler regions of New Zealand they can be grown successfully in pots and moved to protected areas during winter. When planted in the ground, allow enough space for the crown of foliage to spread as the plant matures. Cycads are excellent for courtyards, poolside planting, tropical themed gardens, and modern landscapes where their bold form can be appreciated.
