The poorly cycad is settling in. It's condition is serious but stable. I'll give it a litre of martini cocktail every day for a week or two. That way if it does die it will go happy.

Poor sickly cycad !
It seems to be suffering from depression.
Could be cheered up by pretty "Get Well Soon" cards fixed around its tub.

Needs to know it has a lot of friends and fans out there.
I, for one, wish it a speedy return to good health.
Please post further bulletins on its progress. :o)

You need the patients of a saint to be a cycad owner. Mine has stagnated for 2 years now; it won’t even die quickly if that is its intension.

Too true Ams. I wish my impatient neighbour had understood that when I gave them it. But if yours is healthy, it will suddenly cheer you up with a flush.

I think it needs lots of encouragement. :o)
