Palm Tree Leaf Sheath

Found a perfectly shaped fallen palm tree leaf sheath near a shopping mall this morning. It is almost 5 feet long and curved nicely. I scrubbed it clean then left it to dry under the sun.

The colour of the sheath matched my teak-coloured rubber wood cabinet perfectly well. I positioned it with a piece of pebble underneath.

The cones were picked up when I visited my children in Perth in 2011. These cones were in abundance by the roadsides and in parks. We do not have such large cones in Ipoh, though we have lots of palm trees. I also put in  dragon fruits, cabbage and bitter gourd to add some colours to the picture.
