thanks for the appreciation. please be informed that the plant (screwpine or commonly known as pandan) is a rare plant in the wild though it is a common ingredient among southeast asian dishes. but don't despair, this plant is cultivated widely as is it is now a very popular flavoring in cooking among other nations. the leaves can either be used fresh or wilted, and are commercially available in frozen form in asian grocery stores in nations where the plant does not grow. hope that helps when you try to search for the leaves.
