When is a palm not a palm? Sago Palm looks like, but is not related to, the palm family. In a tropical landscape, trees may reach 20 feet tall and 30 inches around. They are also grown as houseplants.

This fairly slow-growing Cycad has the lush look of a miniature date palm, with frond-like leaves no longer than 9 feet. Needs a warm, frost-free climate.
