Cycad in South America area

Were you able to figure out which species of Cycad this was?

Unfortunately, no, I was not.

@Ituri oh ok. Thank you. Pardon my digression, but have you visited any botanical gardens or arboretums in the Tucson area (ie The University of Arizona Arboretum, Tohono Chul, or the Tucson Botanical Garden)?

Nope, never really been able to take the time. Some day I will though.

@Ituri let me know when you are in the area again. Of the three mentioned, the University of Arizona Arboretum despite being dispersed throughout the campus with placards is my favorite. Have you been to the botanical garden and arboretum on the campus of Arizona State University or the Desert Botanical Garden in Papago Park?

In case anyone is wondering, this specimen appears to be Dioon spinulosum.

@Ituri ah thank you. Where did you find this?

@UngulateNerd92 asked a cycad group on fb

@UngulateNerd92 I have been to the Desert Botanical Garden, but none of the other places you mentioned

@Ituri ah thank you. Ah ok nice. I thought so...
