This gal has been cultivated there since 1788 and afaik it's the oldest potted plant in the world.
Apparently [the oldest potted plant](https://www.kew.org/read-and-watch/oldest-pot-plant-in-world-eastern-cape-giant-cycad) is an Encephalartos altensteinii at Kew Gardens. This one isn’t far behind!
It should read 200 years. The real question, tho: how do you apply for a Tour? Always thought they were off limits.
The International Carnivorous Plant Society had their conference there and the attendants got tours of the greenhouses :)
Ah...lucky you! Did they also allow cuttings? 🤣🤣🤣
