The pandanus or the pisonia only grow away from the sea
where the air salinity is less important. The pandanus
leaves are often used for weaving. Simply dried in the sun
or made white in a citrus bath, they are both resistant
and flexible, two essential conditions to create the
traditional hats, fans and baskets. Besides, pandanus
leaves are also used to make bungalows roofs which
actually saved this tradition.

Noni
The popular Noni, a tropical evergreen known for its edible fruit, is
abundant. In laboratory research, Noni has shown antioxidant, immune-
stimulating, and tumor-fighting properties. These results suggest that Noni
may warrant further study for conditions such as cancer and cardiovascular
disease. However, Noni has not been well studied in people for any health
condition. NCCIH-funded research includes a study on Noni for cancer to
determine its safety and potential effects on tumors and symptoms, as well
as a laboratory study of Noni's effects on prostate cancer cells. The
National Cancer Institute is funding preliminary research on Noni for breast
cancer prevention and treatment.



Coconut Palm Tree
The Coconut Palm Tree (Cocos nucifera) is a large long-living palm that
yields the fruit of a coconut. The tree can last up to 100 years and can grow
up to 98 feet tall. It can blossom up to thirteen times a year. The number of
the palm trees variety throughout the world today is quite striking. There
exist more than 150 kinds of the coconut palm.
The coconut flowers emerge from canoe-shaped sheaths within the crown of
leaves. Each inflorescence is 2 to 3 feet long and contains light yellow
female flowers near the base of the branchlet and smaller male flowers at
the end of the branchlet. The female flowers mature into a fruit 15 inches
long and 12 inches wide. The fruit has a thick, fibrous husk around a nut
about 6 to 8 inches wide and 10 to 12 inches long. Within the shell of this nut
is a fleshy white layer known as the coconut's meat or copra and a water
liquid known as coconut milk that is absorbed by the meat as the nut ripens.
A healthy, mature coconut palm will produce about 50 nuts per year, each
weighing approximately 6 pounds.






Cookies, cakes, ice cream, pastries and deserts around the world
could not be the same as we know them today without the
delicate touch of vanilla. Vanilla, a genus of the Orchidacea
family, is a tropical tree-climbing vine with yellow-greenish
flowers. This plant that takes its origin in central America was
introduced in Polynesia in 1848 and is actually a creeper from the
orchid family that needs a support to sustain. It is a very
important plant in Bora Bora.
