Yes, it could be a type of Dioon.

@Paul2032, any input on the three photos you have at this database entry? I'm 99.99% sure that they are not photos of Zamia integrifolia but some other type of Cycad.

My suspicion is that this is a Dioon spinulosum the giant Dioon.
Dioon that I use to know typically has serrated edges with no mid rib, broad and sessile attachement at leaflets base, most color are bluish and non glossy.

Could this be in a botanical exhibition or a nursery?, where misplaced plant's tag commonly occurred.

I think there's also a Cycas leaves photo-bombing at the lower-left-corner (which could be Cycas revoluta), showing typical Cycas leaves which in many species has smooth edges, dark green color and glossy/shiny.

The photos were taken at a good nursery and I used the tags to ID. Feel free to move them if you need to. I am certainly not an expert.

I'm wondering if a database administrator might offer suggestions regarding moving these photos? I know that Paul is no longer with us but I still think these photos are incorrect for Zamia species. I've been in Florida for almost 56 years and I'm very familiar with Zamia integrifolia which is not depicted in Paul's 3 photos at the Z. integrifolia entry. His pictures more resemble Dioon.

I don't really know where in the database to propose moving them to, I just know that they aren't Zamia integrifolia. The plant looks a lot like Dioon sp. but I'm not all that familiar with Dioon to be able to say for certain. Shrug!

Lets move them to where Tofi suggested, at least it would be in the correct genus.
