Description Top

Suggest a correction or write a new one!
The plant is also used in traditional medicine in Mozambique.

In the 19th century, the tuber was used as a substitute for sago, but this practice has since ceased.

In cultivation
The species is cultivated as an ornamental plant in botanical gardens and private collections in South Africa, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and the United States. It is a slow-growing plant, taking up to 10 years to reach maturity and produce cones. It is also a popular plant for bonsai enthusiasts.

In cultivation, Stangeria eriopus prefers a well-draining, sandy soil and partial shade. It is sensitive to frost and should be protected in colder climates. Propagation is typically done through seeds or by division of the tuber.
