  1. shades of light green mixing on to slightly darker hue...!! So enchanting..!! Not sure how much I used to like them in my child hood when I play with these coco leaves at home... The fresh one is yellow-greenish and then it turns dark green..The vibrancy is well picked ... In fact we can make many small toys with these ..(Like a fan, a ball , a toy watch etc etc) FYI
