For me, the classic "Oliva" is the sign that it's Palm Sunday.
As kids, growing up in Morato, we had several neighbours with Oliva plants outside their home. Then, when Palm Sunday would come, they'd offer them so that we didn't have to buy palms.
It's such a vivid childhood memory that it's something that always pops up around this time.
While the coconut palms - with their intricate and artful designs - are nice, the simple Oliva has a different charm.
Maybe because of the fact that from childhood to adulthood, it's part of my life.
