Fern character of Cycas is

Ferns are a group of vascular plants that reproduce via spores rather than seeds. They have a unique way of developing their leaves called "vernation." Vernation refers to the way in which a young frond (fern leaf) is coiled or folded before it unfurls.

Cycas is not a fern but a gymnosperm plant that belongs to the family Cycadaceae. Unlike ferns, cycads have seeds and produce cones. However, Cycas leaves share some similarities with ferns, including their circinate vernation.

In circinate vernation, the young leaves are tightly coiled up in a spiral before they unfurl. This is a common characteristic of many ferns as well as some other plants, including the Cycas.
