An Easter palm (Polish: Palma wielkanocna, Lithuanian: Verba) is a traditional Lithuanian and Polish symbolic decoration associated with Palm Sunday. Barbara Ogrodowska states that the ceremonial palm branch is the "most important attribute" of Palm Sunday in Poland.[1] Communities of Polish emigrants, such as those in the United States, observe the tradition of making of Easter palms as well.[2]
