palm leaf
Fan-shaped tropical foliage
A palm leaf is a frond from a palm tree—the large, fan-shaped or feather-shaped foliage characteristic of tropical palms.
Palm leaves have traditional uses in thatching, weaving, and religious ceremonies: Palm leaves are waved on Palm Sunday.
In South and Southeast Asia, dried palm leaves served as an early writing surface, with text scratched into the leaf.
