Please visit us at: http://botanyboy.org/ Japan’s southern islands are home to the most well known cycad in the world, Cycas revoluta, the sago palm tree. These trees are in fact not palms, but rather very ancient cone bearing plants, dating back hundreds of millions of years - evolving even before the dinosaurs. In this video we travel to Amami Oshima, an island north of Okinawa, and home to forests of these trees. Come along and get a rare glimpse of this plant in its native homeland and be amazed at these ancient forests.
