''Z. skinneri'' in habitat.]] </div> <div class="small-0 large-9 columns"> ===Conservation Status:=== Endangered ===Distribution & Habitat:=== Lowland rainforest of Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and Panama. ===Description:=== A truly spectacular plant, the most immediately noticable thing about them is their unnaturely large leaflets, up to 50cm long, and 15cm wide, corrugated, and a lovely glossy green. The leaves can be up 2m long, on a trunk which can grow to 2m high. ===General:=== A very much sought after plant by collectors for obvious reasons. ===Culture:=== An understory rainforest plant, so it likes warmth, humidity and shade. </div> </div> <div class="row"> <div class="small-0 large-7 columns"> [[File:Zamia_skinneri06.jpg|frame|Figure 2.
