Editing Cycas ophiolitica (section)

===Habitat:===
The main habitat is in rocky, sloping and open eucalypt-forest
(iron-bark country) with little vegetative surround.
The soil is very poor. Much
of the area contains magnasite rock which is of a hard nature.
Plants occur along hilly outcrops and in lower regions near
creek systems.
Could it be that the geological base determines the blueness
of the fronds? If the colouring is found to be permanent
after long cultivation, and in various localities, the
''Cycas'' has very good landscape potential and yet
another that warrants our concern as a plant in danger.
Reports at hand indicate that this ''Cycas'' grows near
stands of ''Macrozamia miquelii'' and
''Cycas media''.
