Hello friends,
after a long time, I came back to you again. Now I will tell my moments of taking pictures of this picture. I took this picture from my village house to my grandfather's house after many days I went to my grandfather's house with my family. From the very beginning of the movie the hobby of taking pictures. So, I went further to add to my addiction. There I go looking for a chance to take my pictures. As usual, one day opportunity has become possible. Again that afternoon, there was heavy rain in the afternoon, the nature seal is very refreshing and left without thinking. I was looking for the photo caption by looking at my eyes, and then I saw an amazing scene. And think of that work and took a few pictures.
Description
Borassus flabellifer is a robust tree and can reach a height of 30 meters (98 ft) . The trunk is grey, robust and ringed with leaf scars; old leaves remain attached to the trunk for several years before falling cleanly. The leaves are fan-shaped and 3 m (9.8 ft) long, with robust black teeth on the petiole margins. Like all Borassus species, B. flabellifer is specious with male and female flowers on separate plants. The male flowers are less then 1 cm long and form semi circular clusters, which are hidden beneath scale-like bracts within the catkin-like inflorescence. In contrast, the female flowers are goofball sized and solitary, sitting upon the surface of the inflorescence axis. After pollination, these blooms develop into fleshy fruits 15-25 cm wide, each containing 1-3 seeds. The fruits are black to brown with sweet, fibrous pulp and each seed is enclosed within a woody endocarditis. Young Palmyra seedlings grow slowly, producing only a few leaves each year but at an as yet undetermined time, they grow rapidly, producing a substantial stem.
Leaves.....
The Borassus flabellifer leaves are used for thatching, mats, baskets, fans, hats, umbrellas, and as writing material.
All the literature of the old Tamil was written in preserved Plam leaves also known as palm leaf manuscript. In Tamil Nadu or Olai chuvadi.It was written with a sharpens iron puce called an Eluthani. Most of the ancient literature in Telugu are written on palm leaves.
In Indonesia the leaves were used in the ancient culture as paper, known as "lontar". Leaves of suitable size, shape, texture, and maturity were chosen and then seasoned by boiling in salt water with turmeric powder, as a preservative. The leaves were then dried. When they were dry enough, the face of the leaf was polished with pumice, cut into the proper size, and a hole made in one corner. Each leaf made four pages. The writing was done with a stylus and had a very cursive and interconnected style. The leaves were then tied up as sheaves.
The stem of the leaves has thorny edges Fences can be prepared from these sestem by nailing them together.
The skin of the stem can be peeled off and be used as rope and also used to weave into cots. In some part of Tamil Nadu, a variety of rice flour cake is prepared using the leaf.
