One of the plants in the Ernest M. Gifford Cycad Garden
Cycads are ancient, slow-growing, cone bearing plants. A number of cycads can be found growing in Davis, especially in the planters in front of Storer Hall that compose the Ernest M. Gifford Cycad Garden.
Many species resemble, and are often confused for, palm trees. This is particularly true for the Sago Palm (Cycas revoluta) which is a common garden plant.
See Town Flora for other plants growing within Davis.
