I didn't plant this cycad, and it's not a fruit-bearing plant, so you may be wondering why I felt the need to share this nugget of information with you. Add More Green isn't just about spending your time to harvest your own fruits and vegetables...it's about living in harmony with the beauty of nature around you and stopping every now and again to see how Mother Earth adds more green on her own. I'll keep you updated as this new set of leaves continues to develop.
