Just gorgeous!  Puts my dried out weed patch to shame!  Do you do landscaping for hire?  Regarding the driveway, I call for a sequel: "Troy's Garden Part 2".

Summers are great, 90f/32c in the day & 70f/21c at night with plentiful rain & sun

Winters are subtropical with occasional frosts and freezes. Tropical cyclones happen.

We have a few Royal palms in the warm microclimates but Coconuts freeze.

Fantastic job Troy! I see a lot of Pogobob influence which is a great guy to emulate. I remember when that garden was first starting. It has come a long way. You should be very proud.

Pretty much every color of the rainbow there. Really nice. Look forward to seeing the updates as the

palms get more mature. Really like the tree ferns. Is that an Octopus type tree?? I think we have a

realative of it here Shefela or something like that. Nice leaf structure.

I would not have realized that so much could grow so well down there.

Even a Paw Paw.

Looks like you have done some work on the hardscape if I am not mistaken. By the way, your palms look incredible. Barely any burn or brown tips.  Well done sir!

Looking great Troy. Are those two plumose ceroxylon what grew from the "parvifrons" seed?

Rich yes they were meant to be parvifrons but are something entirely different maybe vogelianum

Great color...very relaxing...love the tree ferns. I lost mine last year. Did I get a glimpse of the ocean in the background?

Looks amazing Troy. Your palms all look pristine. Hope you get a mild winter so they look that good in a few months at the start of the growing season. 

Where's the narration??

Thank you very much for the update - this a real beautiful garden!

Taking your time and walking slowly, turning the cam sometimes back to get another view of the spot - very nice!

Since I am still a beginner I am lost with identifying the most of your species but that`s ok, I really enjoyed "the show".

I am by myself trying to put some color into my yard, so liked all the different plants and flowers very much, too!

All the best from here -

Lars

Thanks Dave

Due to concreted rock borders and mulch and a fully automatic watering system the garden nearly looks after itself
