Síolta agus Torthaí ar Snámh
Tá bua iontach ag síobshíolta agus torthaí na teochreasa toisc gur féidir leo fanacht beo ar feadh míonna nó fiú blianta san fharraige. Snámhann cnónna cócó go maith agus tá blaoscanna tiubha acu nach ligeann an sáile isteach. Nuair a shroicheann siad cladaigh na tíre seo, áfach, bíonn sé ró-fhuar dóibh fanacht beo.
Floating Seeds and Fruits
Tropical drift-seeds and fruits are remarkable because they can survive for months or even years at sea. Coconuts are very buoyant, and have thick protective shells which are impervious to salt water. Once they arrive on our shores, it is too cold for them to survive.
