A nice batch of lepidozamia seedlings. These ones are about 8 months old grow the date they were sown. Super easy to grow and germinate. Being native to my area they grow do easy , these seeds are from my garden from plants planted 23 years ago, so they take at least 20 years to start coning. Single plants that are planted away from the others that are coning produce seeds so you don’t red them planted next to each, but I do have the weevil that does the pollination.

There easy to grow. I have seen them growing in some cold places in my area where I live. I cannot confirm temperatures that low. But it’s possible they would go close to very cold temperatures you mentioned.
