From Palmpedia - Palm Grower's Guide
We are seeking the name of a palm tree that grows in India plus other Asian countries. The trunk fiber of the palm tree, when dried they look like a thick spaghetti and about 1 to 2" long. These fibers when exposed to a water mixture absorb and expand like a sponge. Can anyone tell us which palm or palms match this characteristic?
Thanks
