Picture above, and three below are of the "Tromso palm." It's an imported species that sort of "went wild." The flower part looks like a huge Queen Anne's Lace, and the leaves look like, well, palm leaves. They grow very tall--6 to 7 feet. These pictures were taken looking over the side of a bridge along the roadway.
All summer long we took pictures of the wild flowers that grow all over the island. Seems appropriate that I should finally get these posted, since today, Sept. 29, it is snowing on the green grass and the orange/yellow leaves. Anyway, June and July are especially beautiful with several varieties of ferns and masses of flowers everywhere.
