Plant Description

Macrozamia stenomera is a rare and striking cycad native to Australia, known for its gracefully arching, feathery fronds with long, slender, dark green leaflets. This slow-growing, palm-like plant forms a robust underground caudex, allowing it to withstand drought and fire. Its elegant foliage emerges in a dense rosette, creating a lush, tropical appearance. As a dioecious species, it produces distinct male and female cones, with the female cones eventually bearing bright red seeds. Adapted to sandy and well-draining soils, this ancient plant is a stunning choice for collectors and dry gardens.
