Fun Facts

  • With salt glands on the leaves, Cuban bast can excrete excess salt and survive in regions of high salinity. They are also fast-growing and resistant to wind. They are planted near the coast as wind shelter.

  • In the old days, people in Taiwan used the large leaves to wrap dumplings or hold them like a plate. These dumplings were used to treat relatives and friends during Chinese New Year.
