Prawdziwa palma jest narodowym drzewem Kuby, widnieje w herbie, a także w logo INTUR. Drzewo to jest powszechne na Kubie, osiągając wysokość 25/30 metrów, a nawet 40 metrów, z liśćmi o długości około 6 metrów. Łatwo je rozpoznać po kształcie pnia, wybrzuszonego poniżej wierzchołka i długim pionowym guziku na szczycie.

Wykryto wariant na tle, jeden z wyraźnymi falami na tle i trawą pod palmą, a bardzo słaby i mniej szczegółów na drugim.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

The real palm tree is the national tree of Cuba, it shows in the coat of arms and also is included in the INTUR logo. This tree is common in Cuba, reaching 25/30 meters high, and even 40m, with leaves about 6 meters long. Easily identified by the shape of the trunk, bulged below top, and a long vertical button on top.

It was detected a variant on background, one with clear waves on background and grass under the palm, and very weak and fewer details on the other.
