Palmyra Palm trees.
Palmyra tree's leaves were used in ancient India as a writing
material, like paper. It's young seeds are eatable, tasty, looks
like jelly and contains water in the center. When we were
young, we roasted the fruits and ate them.

The brooms made from the dried coconut leaf parts are
used to sweep the outside area of the houses. Some people
grow them near their houses. Unlike Palmyra Trees,
coconut trees require regular watering. Palm trees are
propagated using seeds.

ReplyDeleteJust now visited your blog. the photos are very nice. especially the coconut trees and the insects. Iam thinking back the childhood days in my native.The very same scene.. we could see plam trees and coconut trees along the road while going to the school. But now this is not so..the population of the trees reduces while the number of building increases. Iam missing my village where I was born.
