Palms are mostly spread in Dzūkija and Aukštaitija.
They are of 2 types: flacked - made from hazel or spindletree colored shavings;
herbaceous – twisted from dried outdoor or domestic flowers, bents or mosses.

In Žemaitija and Suvalkija palms are not popular. Here we have juniper twigs.
People in Žemaitija add thuja or birch twigs to juniper to make a palm.
People in Suvalkija don’t addanything to juniper.
