===Culture:=== Full sun, well drained position. These pictures (Figures1-3) were taken in Suurberge Reserve (berge = mountains) next to the Addo Elephant Park in the Eastern Cape. Plants were growing on northern slopes in mostly long grass and full sun. Soil is clay but drainage was still very good because of the slope. There are some plants showing hybridisation with ''[[Encephalartos horridus]]'', ie. lobed leaflets but this must be a few generations ago since even the lobes are rounded much the same as normal ''E.longifolius'' leaflets. This hybrid is described in ''Cycads of South Africa'' by C. Giddy. </div> </div> <div class="row"> <div class="small-0 large-6 columns"> [[File:Encephalartos_longifolius02.jpg|frame|Figure 2.
