No worries Elise!

Ha.. no.. sorry Elise it's partly a standardised welcome we use. You wouldn't believe what some idiots try to post. This spotting is fine and looks great in the wet too. It's a good idea to put a little description or notes also to give some context even if it's just a few words.

It looks like staccyh has the correct scientific name for this. Welcome to Project Noah Elise. I invite you to go to http://www.projectnoah.org/faq where you will find the purpose and “rules” of Project Noah. The first rule is that you can only post pictures you yourself have taken of living (and occasionally dead) organisms, so you'll need to remove this spotting and replace it with a picture you have taken of an organism, not a picture from a book. Thanks for understanding. There is a blog http://blog.projectnoah.org/ where we post articles from spotters with special insight into different organisms. There are also the chats for help with identification, and to comment on your own and others’ spottings. Look at the global and local missions to put your spottings into:http://www.projectnoah.org/missions .

Cool seeds! The scientific name is Rhopalostylis sapida. If you add this to your spotting it will be complete. Here's the wiki page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikau
