Cycads

Cycads
By Andy Boze, Associate Librarian
University of Notre Dame

Cycads are woody plants which produce seeds. Although they may have a general appearance which is readily identifiable by most people, they are usually linked to palms or ferns, when in fact they are not related to either. Cycads are actually a unique assemblage of plants and although they are grouped with the gymnosperms they are in point of fact unrelated to any other group of living plants.
