Cycas revoluta ~ Monrovia® Sago Palm size-3-cal The fringe-like raspberry red flowersMonrovia Sago Palm is a very slow growing symmetrical evergreen shrub that, despite the name, is closer to a conifer than a palm. The arching, palm like palmate foliage with revolute edges sits atop a shaggy upright trunk creating a feathery rosette. Grows best with part sun and consistently moist well drained sandy soils. Males produce upright yellow pollen cones, while females will produce round cones with bright red seeds if a male is nearby. Does
