Editing Macrozamia douglasii (section)

===Description: ===
''Macrozamia douglasii'' develops a great symmetrical
circle of leaf fronds, the largest I personally have seen was
some 3 metres tall and about 4 metres in circumference. The
caudex is mostly subterranean in most of the plants near the
tracks, but occasionally there emerges plants of obvious
great antiquity with a pronounced caudex of 1 metre in height.
The central new fronds rise from the apex with the
pinnae starting small and curled and developing quickly as in
the other forms of ''M. miquelii''.
Male plants have multiple cones low on the plant and
also are similar as in ''[[Macrozamia miquelii]]''. The female plants
have mostly single cones developing in the axils of leaf
fronds. However I did observe as many as three cones on one
plant. The cones are characteristic of all ''Macrozamia'' with
the seed evident, orange-red fruit visible through the green
spine bearing pads that form the cone.
The seed is definitely larger than the form found nearer
to Brisbane at Upper Brookfield, and the cone also is larger
in size.  Size of largest cones would compare favourable
with the ''Macrozamia miquelii'' around the hills of Gympie,
Queensland.
