PLANT INFORMATION: Prehistoric Palms; These are not actually a palm, but a cycad. Cycads formed an extensive portion of the flora in the time of the dinosaurs. There is no doubt herbivorous dinosaurs grazed contentedly among these plants. The dinosaurs disappeared, however, and so did most of the cycads – except for a few incredibly resilient species that still exist today. They are now referred to as living fossils, for they have remained virtually unchanged, and give us a glimpse into a long-distant past. These plants have beautiful leaf colors, from light green, to sage, to blue-gray, they can live to be 1,500 years old and eventually achieve a trunk height of 10 feet. Prehistoric Ferns; What do ferns and dinosaurs have in common? They were both present in the Mesozoic era. Ferns are one of the oldest living things dating back 300 million years ago! Unlike the dinosaurs, the ferns escaped extinction and thrive in their natural habitats or in landscaped gardens on every continent in the world. These full, lush plants are not actually ferns though, but members of the lily family (Liliaceae). Their long, arching stems are densely covered with short, needle-like leaflets giving the plants a delicate appearance. Prehistoric Pines; Before the evolution of flowering plants dinosaurs ate things like pine needles, ferns and cycads. This pine would have been a tasty snack for any dinosaur tall enough to reach it! The Austrian Pine is an extremely tolerant pine of adverse soil conditions and air pollution. The Austrian Pine is a native of Austria, northern Italy and Yugoslavia. They have thrived for over 200 years in some of the worst soil and climate conditions America has to offer.
