The Burrawang (Macrozamia communis) plant is found in open forests along the coast of New South Wales, Australia. This can be on the south or east coast of the state with humid conditions and a plenty of sunlight. This cycad is medium-sized with a subterranean woody trunk and rounded crown. It produces arched, pinnately compound bright green leaves that emerge from the central trunk, giving it a gracefully rounded crown. Like other cycads, both male and female trees produce cones. Male cones are erect and cylindrical, while female cones are barrel-shaped, producing oblong to ovoid orange or bright red seeds.
Burrawangs have an overall height between 4.9’-6.6’ (1.5-2 m) and diameter of 6.9’-12.8’ (2.1-3.9 m). The trunk of the Burrawang has a diameter of 11.8”-31.5” (30-80 cm) with leaf lengths between 39”-79” (100-200 cm).
