Taal Palm Plant

The Taal Palm (Borassus flabellifer), also known as the Palmyra Palm, is a tall tropical tree with a thick trunk and fan-shaped leaves. It produces black-skinned fruits with sweet, jelly-like pulp. The tree is valued for its timber, fiber, and sap, which is used for sugar and toddy. Drought-resistant and adaptable, it thrives in coastal and arid regions.
