The Plant Figurehead

In the West, we are familiar with a figurehead as a carved wooden decoration found at the bow of ships, generally of a design related to the name or role of a ship.

 

On our colorful boat in Myanmar, the figurehead is a plant (so awesome), guiding us along the Kaladan river tributaries somewhere between Sittwe and Mrauk-U. Rakhine State, Myanmar.
