I was under the impression that Arthur C Clarke was a Sri Lankan, that he had the citizenship. That’s what Sri Lankans said, and believed, and still believe. Turns out he was still a British citizen although he lived in Sri Lanka.
Broccoli is grown in Nuwara Eliya the cold climate area in Sri Lanka but small scale.
Sri Lanka coming to mind when you see broccoli is no surprise if you know about the national symbol of the country. Sri Lankan flag has a lion. And the majority indigenous Sri Lankan race “Sinhala” to which I belong, means “lion blood.” But Sri Lanka has never had a single lion in the wild, except the poor scrawny lion that’s living in a tiny cage in the zoo.
