LOCAL

MATERIALS
Sansevieria trifasciata
It is an evergreen perennial plant forming
dense stands, spreading by way of its
creeping rhizome, which is sometimes
above ground, sometimes underground.
Its stiff leaves grow vertically from a
basal rosette. Mature leaves are dark
green with light gray-green cross-banding
and usually range from 70–90 centimetres
(28–35 in) long and 5–6 centimetres (2.0–
2.4 in) wide, though it can reach heights
above 2 m (6 ft) in optimal conditions.
Pineapple
Pineapple, Ananas comosus, is an
herbaceous biennial or perennial plant in
the family Bromeliaceae grown for its
edible fruit. The pineapple plant has a
short stout stem and a rosette of sword-
shaped leaves with needle-like tips. The
leaves are waxy, have upturned spines on
the margins and may be soild green or
striped with red, white or cream.
Coconut
The coconut tree is a member of the palm
tree family (Arecaceae) and the only known
living species of the genus Cocos. The term
"coconut” can refer to the whole coconut
palm, the seed, or the fruit, which botanically
is a drupe, not a nut. The term is derived
from the 16th-century Portuguese and
Spanish word coco, meaning "head" or
"skull" after the three indentations on the
coconut shell that resemble facial features.
Coconut shell
The coconut shell defines an
inner cavity therein.
The coconut shell is
comprised of a material
resistant to gnawing damage
by the rodents and has thermal
retention characteristics to
allow the rodent to burrow
within the cavity
