世界上叶子最长的植物,据说应推生长在南美洲的亚马孙竹椰子,其叶长达十九米以上,光是叶柄便长约四米,但笔者未尝亲见。我所见过的叶子最长的树是生长在海南岛热带原始森林中的南椰。 南椰(Arenga Westerhortii Griff),为棕榈科桄榔属乔木,我国主产于海南岛的原始森林中,广西、云南南部的森林亦有分布,近年来在一些植物园和公园内有少量引种。南 The longest plant in the world is said to have been populated by Amazonian bamboo and coconut grown in South America. Its leaves are nineteen meters long and about four meters longer than petioles, but I have not seen it personally. The longest leaf I have ever seen is the southern coconut that grows in the tropical forests of Hainan Island. Arenga Westerhortii Griff is the arbutus of the genus Palmaeaceae. Our country is mainly found in the virgin forest of Hainan Island. The forests of Guangxi and Yunnan are also distributed. In recent years, there are some botanical gardens and parks with a small number of species introduced. south
