What the hell is my sago palm doing?

2 years ago, wasn't a bad winter so I did not trim up the palm fronds. Last year we had a couple of harsh winter nights that browned everything down. This spring I cut it back to reveal an unusual looking growth on the trunk. The light colored things just below the new fronds.
Here is a closer look. As you can see, below the light colored growth, the sides of the trunk loaded up with nuts/seeds.
Any way, I've had this particular palm for quite a few years and have seen others in the past. I've never seen one do this. Is it a result of the seeding out? Is the light colored growth like pistols or stamens or whatever the reproductive organs are on a flower?

They are poisonous to dogs, just kill it and remove it from your life

I don't know anything about seeding out but if you got a dog watch out those seeds will kill a dog very quickly.

Probably trying to get laid like the rest of us.

sago palms are trashy.

While you are digging your pond, use the machine to dig up that hideous thing

I enjoy my yard too much to let some mutt tear it up. Thus, I don't have a dog.

Good point. But this is just up in a corner that I don't really mess with. I was talking more about my back yard where a dog would be fenced in.

I didn't realize the hate for them here rivaled that of the Bradford Pear. I've always liked sago palms.

The hate is real...

Take out that holly while you are at it

Get rid of it. Who wants to trim that prickly shite once a year?
Posted on 8/8/18 at 11:55 am to Clyde Tipton
Hopefully its dying. I hate those damn things
