MeePeeMai Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 I don't know the Thai name but in Hawaii they are called Lauhala trees and the fruit is from green to yellow (not red). Not edible though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Croc Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Looks like Pandanus to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oxx Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 It looks like Pandanus tectorius, a kind of screwpine. In Thai, təəy thálee. Its fruit are edible, and the leaves can be used to flavour and perfume food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
