    A modern view. This is the Sagano Chikuren (Sagano Bamboo Grove) in Arashiyama, Kyoto.

Yes! We have some bananas...

    I see bamboo (actually I just read the tag on the right ;)
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    oaktree_brian_1976 Ooops, the independent adjudicator from KPMG will allow bamboo. I tagged for it because I blindly mistook a thin roof strut as a (dead) bamboo support for the banana palm... But where's the live bamboo?
  • Swordscookie said:
    We've got string beans and onions, Cabashes and scallions, all kinds of fruit and say, we've got an old fashioned potato, a new fashioned tomato, and Yes, we have no bananas NLI you stole (sorry "REPURPOSED" [whatever that means]) a line from my late aunts party piece which she belted out each time she had a few sherries on her! It really got the family going and caused great amusement! I cannot see any obvious bamboo but the fine leaves high behind the banana may just be what you describe!
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Swordscookie "Stole" is such an ugly word! I "repurposed" it... :)
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Phormium from Seuss looks plausible, but not so convinced by his suggestion of Aspidistra... And Swordscookie don't think that they look like bamboo leaves when you check against the huge size:

    I live in the south and there are still a lot of people that like to sit on a pond or lake all day. Its a form on relaxation and a cheap way to de-stress even if you don't catch one fish.

    "Negroes" ? Somebody needs to sort that madness out.
  • HugeRedBear said:
    "Somebody" needs to stop huffing the Political Correctness gas. It has that title because that is what the photograph was titled at the TIME. It is a dishonor to all those who fought and died for civil rights to erase the unpleasant TRUTH of the past. If you hide the past that is today considered disagreeable in time people will forget all the hard work to move forward. There will be back sliding and repetition of mistakes. And then everything gained is imperiled. You already see it in urban culture. Would MLK allow for the "musicians" (I put it in quotes 'cause many of them are far more interested in begging for attention than creating art) that use the various N-words to refer to each other? Never. These people grew up with most of the battles won. They've forgotten and/or compartmentalized their past and have no problem disrespecting and hurting their communities. Political correctness is best, like all things, in moderation.

    Thank you, HugeRedBear!

    MLK said "negroes" a thousand times.
