Here is a picture of a Talipot from the Singapore National Botanic Garden. I made this image last year while in that fabulous place. As a matter fact- this is an Iphone image- I had taken some pictures with my fancy Nikon P7100, but none were as nice as this one.

Enjoy.

    Tom,

    You are lucky if you can visit this Talipot every day!

    I will not come to Singapore this year, instead of that, I'll hunt the Loxococcus rupicola in his habitat.

    I look forward to enjoying the leeches!

    Could it be the same palm as this one? I took the photo on New Year 1978, so it might be not the freshest news … B)
