Sikas a.k.a Cycad a.k.a Encephalartos

This plant is a gift from someone who wants to get rid the ugly thing out of his yard, the Cycad was not very good back then, its leaves were full of white dots, and the pot was broken, so ugly that even if I gave it for free to anybody, he/she will surely refuse.

But now with its new stems, new (bigger) pot, and white stones, it look so charming.

Indeed even a plant needs bigger place to grow, needs love to become beautiful.
