I planted my 

PINK CEDAR
Acrocarpus fraxinifolius

 

behind my Bizmarkia in photo as a 5 ga 1-1-1/2 yrs and Rainbow Euc as a seedling at same time.   They are both 14 and 16 ft tall now.   Gonna pull the Rainbow and give to friend just waiting for him to come get it.    Grow soooooo fast I would reccomend both those Trees!

Very nice!  Love the well defined beds, paths, and borders.  Definitely in line with my tastes.

Progress has been impressive. Nice garden you've created.

I know first hand all about 'jungle’ themes.

That could end up being tricky for the survival of your Papaya.  I just ripped two out after planting them in the vicinity of a Dypsis prestoniana.  I gave the Dypsis plenty of water which it appreciates, while trying to allow the papayas to dry out between watering.  When they ended up showing rot, and I extracted them, I found that the main root went straight over to the watering area around the Dypsis to access more water.  The papayas are fast growers and can be replaced, but don't be surprised if you see it happen.  I still have another one in a different part of the garden and the adjacent plants get to dry out between watering too, so I don't expect a repeat.  Your garden has really started to fill in over the last couple of years, and will only do more so as time passes!  Very tropical feel , a happy place!
