Greetings from La Union Botanical Garden
Just for fun–and for the search engines–we will tell you what the unused 2002 card tells us: the scientific or local names of these plants: Licuala Grandis H. Wendl, Livistona Rutundifolia, and Anahaw. Now, Licuala grandis is the Ruffled Fan Palm, Vanuatu Fan Palm or Palas Palm, a species of palm tree in the Arecaceae family, and native to Vanuatu. Livistona rutundifolia is also known as the Table Palm, Footstool Palm, and Fan Palm, and is the same as Anahaw. Confused? Don’t be. We just extract this kind of information from time to time, and then move on. Minor edge bumping. Grade: 2

With a total length of 2.16 kilometers (1.34 mi), it is the longest bridge in the Philippines spanning a body of seawater. The bridge was dedicated to Ferdinand Marcos’ wife, Imelda Marcos.

Tagaytay City, Taal Volcano
Just because we found this interesting, we are abridging the volcano’s Wikipedia entry here: “Taal Volcano is a complex volcano located on the island of Luzon. It is the second most active volcano in the Philippines with 33 historical eruptions. All of these eruptions are concentrated on Volcano Island, an island near the middle of Taal Lake. The lake partially fills Taal Caldera. Viewed from Tagaytay Ridge, Taal Volcano and Lake presents one of the most picturesque and attractive views in the Philippines. It is located about 50 kilometres (31 miles) south of Manila. The volcano had several violent eruptions in the past causing loss of life in the island and the populated areas surrounding the lake, with the death toll estimated at around 5,000 to 6,000.” Unused 5″ x 7″ card.
