This plant was on my place when I bought it so don't know how old it is. Through the dry season (winter) the fronds began to die off. At the same time there was a growth at the top which looked like a large male cone. Eventually all the fronds died off but the "cone" kept growing. With the transition season (change from dry to wet) set in this "cone" began to rapidly produce new fronds at the top. That was when I decided to take a closer look at it.
