Palm and Cycads

High Quality Palm and Cycads


Palm and Cycads
Palms and cycads, while visually similar with their large, fan-like leaves and tall trunks, are not closely related botanically. Palms are flowering plants (angiosperms) and belong to the family Arecaceae, while cycads are gymnosperms and belong to the family Cycadaceae. A key difference is that cycads produce seeds in cones, whereas palms produce flowers that lead to fruit containing seeds.
