I bought it from the Souvenir shop at the Iskandar Waterfall along the main road between Cameron Highland & Tapah. And according to the seller, it is ONLY available at Camaron Highland!! You can refer from this post.
It's been more than five years. And I confirm it's alive, as you can see from the picture below......it will grows some kind of Gold new "Skin" on the right, and the old is on the left. It's look similar like golden hair.
Today it still grows slowly....
According to the seller, it will grows bigger.....but the one shows on the picture above does not grow. My relatives bought another 2, they grew ! It's about 10mm more!
One of my friend (Mr Kumar) said that it is the "Fern" . You can read it from the Wiki. But I feel that......not really similar on the outlook. What's your opinion? Any idea? Any name for it?

ReplyDeletei agree it looks like a fluffy tree. golly. and like Øyvind mentions, it can be mistaken as an animal. golly haha
I really looks like an animal more than a plant. But it looks cute with all the furry texture around.
ReplyDeleteHi 0yvind, cyza, Quachee & Apple,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the visit.
Yeah, it's looks like a monkey head?! Don't u think? Haha! I bought it also because of my curiosity.
Cheers!
Wat's that brown furry thing? Looks like the back of a squirrel or something...is it part of the plant? Have never seen this before.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea what kind of plant it is but it looks interesting.
ReplyDeleteYou said your relatives plant is growing more than yours - do they fertilize it or possibly have it more sun or shade than you have yours?
ya, the plant looks like a monkey head...LOL
ReplyDeletebtw, you've a nice blog too!!! ;-)
Its a tree fern (Cibotium barometz). They chop off the growing top portion of the fern which has this furry covering. If you water it everyday, this part may grow roots and eventually grow leaves (fronds).
ReplyDeleteAnd no, it can be found all over South East Asia especially on hills and mountains.
Hi Bug Life, Tricia, Monica & Las Montanas,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the visit.
Tricia,
I think you are right. Maybe theirs are more sun light & also may water it everyday....just like Las said.
Las Montanas,
Thanks a lot for the information! Appreciated. At last I know what is this weird plant. I agree with you, this 'thing' is grow on hills or mountains.
Ok, I wanna water it everyday, and see if it grow roots or leaves.
Thanks again.
Cheers!
