Among the many plants in Hainan , what impressed me most was the coconut tree. In Hainan, leaf trees can be seen everywhere. When we got off the plane, what we saw were rows of coconut trees.
The trunk of the coconut tree is tall and straight, and has circles of patterns, which feel uneven to the touch. The leaves of the coconut tree grow on top of the tree, and each tree has about a dozen leaves. These leaves are long and wide, like Princess Iron Fans banana fan. Coconuts grow just below the leaves. Several coconuts gather together like grapes, and look like naughty children hiding in the trees and looking into the distance. Coconut water is a little sweet and a little sour, and it is very enjoyable to drink when you are thirsty. According to the tour guide, coconut water also has a diuretic effect, so you shouldn’t drink too much in the car. After drinking coconut water, you can also eat coconut meat. The milky white coconut meat is fragrant, crispy and delicious. At the end of the meal, there was still a strong taste of coconut milk.
According to the tour guide’s introduction, coconut trees are easy to grow and survive. As long as you pick mature coconuts, bury them in the soil, sprinkle some salt on the soil, and then water them, the coconut trees will grow, and you don't have to worry about them anymore. After about seven or eight years, coconuts will be produced. Its a pity that the climate in Wuxi is not suitable for the growth of coconut trees, otherwise we would be able to drink fresh coconut juice often.
