: We have 3 cycads, all were severely
: bitten this winter. We cut them all
: back the same and two have
: re-bloomed/palmed beautifully. One
: however has not, but developed two
: cones. What can we do to help this
: one grow its palms out like the
: other two? And what do we look for.
: Do we break off the two cones that
: now have drooped like they are
: dying?

I would fertilize the plant with a good cycad fertilizer and cut, not break off the cones at the same time. You should get new leaves within a month or so.
