Palm Tree

A trip in to Perth today to pick up an item that M^S could not deliver to my home.  I only live 8 miles from the shop so have no idea why not!  Anyway it was a good excuse to purchase a few other bits and pieces and to have lunch out.

We choose a fish and chip shop that was new to us and had a delicious meal there.  This palm tree fasciated me all the time I was there.  Is it real or fake?  My initial though was that it must be a fake but when I looked at my photo, I'm still not sure!
