[chuck] in Caryota, Laos, Science, Vientiane

During my walk this morning, I saw these Caryota palms for sale on the streets of Vientiane. Anybody that buys one of these is going to be very disappointed. Hard to believe that some people think that plants don't need roots to survive. [NOTE: I have seen cycads being sold on the streets in Mexico in the same condition. Sigh.]
