Cycas simplicipinna is a unique cycad species native to the tropical regions of Southeast Asia. It is known for its distinctive appearance, featuring a thick, trunk-like stem and large, feather-like leaves. This plant is often mistaken for a fern due to its leaf structure, but it is actually a primitive gymnosperm. Cycas simplicipinna thrives in humid, well-drained soils and is often found in shaded forest environments. Due to its rarity and ecological importance, it is considered a valuable and endangered plant species.
