Its central leaf has been eaten by cattle when it was still a spearleaf. As leaves unfold, they produce this grostesque blunt-tipped fan |

The huge terminal inflorescence of Metroxylon sagu. All leaves were removed by Mr Melianus Seipalla - who is inspecting his work here - to completely clear the view on the inflorescence and the long internodes of the trunk part directly below it. |

| Roystonea lenis |
 |
This picture was taken in Baracoa (S.E.Cuba) in April 1998. It is a government managed coconut nursery. Seeds are sprouted within the nursery and then the plants are transplanted to the surrounding plantation when they will be tough enough to survive goats. The tall palms are probably the endemic Roystonea lenis and the fence in the foreground is made of Roystonea wood. |
