Sexual Revolution
For twelve years now, my King Sago palms, Cycas revoluta, bloom without fail. Cycads are dioecious... sexes are on separate plants and these have both always bloomed a male cone. I went out yesterday to dump some coffee grinds on them....the grinds keep them free of the Cycad scale insect...and to my great surprise, one had presented me with a female cone.
I had never heard of this happening but after a quick internet search, I learned that under certain conditions they can indeed change sex and the change can go either way. Live and learn. Now what to do about the bathroom situation. < g >
