  1. Yes.

    Hundreds of fern species are found on Fiji as well as many varieties of orchids. Mangroves and a number of aquatic plants can also be found on Fiji’s various islands.


  2. "The mountainous terrain of Fiji and the tropical marine climate affect the growth of flora in Fiji. The rain bearing clouds rising from the surrounding oceans and seas shed their moisture on the windward side of the mountains. Therefore the development of dense flora is possible in this region.

    The rain forests of Fiji are concentrated in this area. BAMBOO thickets and shrubs are found in this region occasionally.

    The beaches abound in different kinds of palm trees ranging from silver to fishtail, fantail to umbrella. The most important as well as the most useful being the coconut palm. Every part of the tree is used for some purpose.

    Pine trees like s***w pine and Casurina pine are also found. They add to the wonderful flora of Fiji.

    The drier parts of Fiji islands are covered with grasslands growing coarse variety of grasses and shrubs.

    Mangroves also form a part of the flora of Fiji. Sugar cane is the most popular of cultivated crops.

    The orchids and flowering plants add colors to the flora of Fiji. Large and small blossoms bloom throughout the year. Bright colors of the orchid flowers beautify the topography of Fiji.

    One of the flower found only in Fiji is Tagimaucia."
