Encephalartos aemulans

Encephalartos are the most rare plants on the planet, with many species that are endangered in the wild. Fertilization with fish emulsion or blood meal can help these hardy slow growing plants produce larger, fuller leaf sets and cone more readily.

What makes our plants so special? Our location on the cliffs of Santa Barbara receives over 280 days of sunshine a year and we utilize our indigenous soil, mixing it with a specialized amendment. Our plants are routinely watered, fertilized, and trimmed. We always aid our plants to proper health when needs arise, and we do so without the use of sprays.
