This amazing prehistoric-looking plant is Gunnera Manicata. The Trebah website describes it as primeval giant rhubarb from Brazil. The Gunnera Passage winds through a forest of the stuff that forms a canopy above your head. As the sun filters through the Gunnera's massive green leaves everything is bathed in green light. It's also a handy spot to shelter from the rain.
