"Cycad: Ancient Beauties of the Plant Kingdom Macrozamia communis, commonly known as burrawang palm, is one of the fascinating species within the cycad family. With its unique fronds and cone-shaped structures, it adds a touch of prehistoric charm to any landscape. Another captivating member is Encephalartos horridus, also called Eastern Cape blue cycad, renowned for its striking bluish hue that sets it apart from other plants. Zamia pungens is another noteworthy cycad species with its spiky leaves and rugged appearance. Meanwhile, Cycas revoluta or sago palm showcases a more delicate yet resilient nature. These ancient plants have stood the test of time and continue to thrive in various environments. It's crucial to note that some they are listed as vulnerable due to factors like habitat loss and declining populations. The Black-footed Rock Wallaby's decline may have affected seed dispersal for these remarkable plants found only in specific regions such as MacDonnell and Strangways Ranges. Cycads hold a special place in history; they date back millions of years to Jurassic times when dinosaurs roamed the Earth. Their existence can be seen through stunning artwork depicting their primeval allure or even through fossil skeletons like that of an extinct Brontosaurus excelsus. These extraordinary plants are not limited to ancient times alone; they can still be admired today across different parts of the world. For instance, Arayat pitogo (Cycas riuminiana) graces the Botanic Garden Amsterdam while Sago-Palm thrives in the USA, particularly Georgia's enchanting city Savannah during springtime when its foliage curls gracefully.
