It’s always a delight to discover new things in our garden in Patar. How fascinating it is to see these different varieties of tropical plants growing in one corner. Ferns and palms and a sprinkling of other blooms which I don’t have in my small garden.
Sometimes, I sigh in frustration that I could not identify the names of these plants.I am quite clueless, but I simply love the different shades of greens in this set. Then I learned that Anahaw is our national leaf, hooray!
They call this Livistona , a family of palms.
A footstool palm or anahaw.
That’s all there is to it, I think. There are around 1,200 varieties of ferns so it’s a lost cause for me to identify all these. My sis-in-law takes charge of our garden in the province. These are just some of the evergreens that we have there.
Love your green – I never met a fern I didn’t love.
Thanks Judy! Yes, ferns are just lovely!
nice shots!
Salamat Ver!
The anahaw leaf looks so regal, no wonder it is the national leaf. Are we the only country with such thing – a “national leaf”?
I love its green hue, the leaf is lovely. Isn’t this the one they use for native fans?
Yes.
