Cycad Auction
This morning I went to a Cycad auction. Some Cycads are quite rare and very sought after and collectible. I have a number of Cycads in my garden, and was looking to by a bargain.
I will post a video of the actual bidding on a later stage.
I hope you like the video which I took with my iPhone, in Pretoria, South-Africa

Great working on steemit platform
Oh, yes @rynow, the cicada is an excellent plant and an interesting auction!
It is very similar to a fern, maybe this is it, just another name. Anyway a beautiful plant.
These plants are very different from ferns, you can read more about them on these two links, they are very interesting and there are quite a bit of different types.
