magnifico.

Love that bottle palm in the first pic. I see that your leaf bases stay on the palm. Mine do as well. I wonder if they just fall off with age or stay on forever on some bottles. ???

Rick,

     You have a beautiful garden! By the looks of all your great diversity, you must make the rounds at some of the nurseries. Any way of getting you to id the palms for us? I'm having some trouble with the identification myself.

Fantastic!

Making perfect use of your space you have meshed your landscape with your architecture. I can appreciate the time and effort you have put into such an awesome look. Mine is a work in progress, but I am years away from what you have accomplished. Thanks for the photos. Great work. Tim

A lovely garden...really nice tropical ambience you have created there Rick.

How old is the garden?

It reminds me of the canal gardens here...same kind of style with palms and tropicals. In our canal estates you never see trees, only smaller plants. Is it the same there?

regards,

Daryl.
