Enjoy your updates, and your English is fine!
The longest I've waited for a first frond is two years, (on a Lepidozamia), so yours is doing good.

That was worth the wait, Gartem.
Lovely picture

Cycads germinating always look like little periscopes. :D

Received the seeds in February with instructions to hold till Spring.
(to give the embryos time to fully develop)

Soaked and put them in the propagator around the end of March, about 3 months to germinate.

Congratulations Gartem, nice emerging leaf on the Dioon and ... Zamia :lol:

If only palms were as reliable to germinate as cycads!
