Exceptional, Large Palm Frond
Sabalites sp.
Green River Formation
Lincoln County, WY
Eocene - 51 million years old
Palms are considered rare in the Green River Formation of Wyoming due to the fragility of the once-living cellulose. Here, a gorgeous palm frond is naturally positioned in limestone as though blowing in the wind. Also present is an interesting piece of plant material (above) and a tiny fish, Knightia eocaena (below.) Framed in tropical walnut and cleated for wall display.
Measures 114 x 66 inches
