Hello there, Thank you for your time following my other thread "Some Cocos nucifera on Miyako island - south Japan" so far! The question came up if Cocos nucifera (can) grow naturally here on this island - and that somehow got me hooked. I will try to explain in some simple worlds our islands geography while illustrating it with some photos and will end this one with a summary of a brief conversation with a local... If you are interested - please lay back and enjoy.
