Corypha lecomtei (Common name Cay la buong ) is one of the species used to make palm-leaf manuscripts.[1]
Description
This palm species has a trunk 3.5–4 metres (11–13 ft) high and up to a full meter (40 inches) thick, and the leaves are even larger, with petioles up to 8.8 metres (29 ft) long [2](exceeded only by Musa ingens and Lodoicea) and "canaliculate" (round in cross-section with a deep groove on the upper surface) and the leaf blade of 3.5–4 metres (11–13 ft) in length.[3] The inflorescence, a panicle, is very large, up to 40 feet (12 meters) in height, of which the peduncle is 5 to 6.5 feet (1.5 to 2 meters) with the remainder being the panicle per se. The width is about 20 feet (6 meters).[4] The plant flowers and fruits only once (monocarpy), at between 15 and 30 years of age, and then dies.[3] The fruit is brownish and about 3 inches (7 to 8 cm) long and almost as wide.[5]
