I just had a 2 days trip to the western area of Thailand.

One of my mission for this trip was to see Phoenix loureiroi on its habitat.

I and friends wake up on the early morning , no breakfast because I think it should not take too much times but I was wrong.

We have to climb up to the top most of this mountain.

Some are blueish leave , while some are green. I don't know what is the factor for making them difference.

We took around 45 minutes to reach the top of the hill.

Look down to bottom , I saw many of bluish leave growing there. They look more bigger than the one on the top.

I don’t want to hijack this thread, but I can add two pics which were taken a bit closer to the palm (in its habitat near Hongkong):
