Editing Lepidozamia peroffskyana (section)

===Fronds: ===
New fronds of ''L. peroffskyana'' are produced in flushes and rise almost vertically with furled
pinnae for a considerable portion of their ultimate length (Figure 4) before the pinnae
begin to unfurl. The pinnae on new fronds are a distinctive bronze (sometimes brownish) colour, but
change to a glossy dark green as the fronds reach full size and undergo a hardening process. With age,
the fronds tend to arch and produce a graceful palm-like appearance.
During the relatively short period of time in which new fronds reach full size and harden up, the pinnae
are extremely glossy and shiny so much so that, when new growth is uniformly produced in a stand
after a bushfire, the new fronds brilliantly reflect the sunshine, when the sun is directly overhead
(Figure 5).
