I do some experiments and learning in my garden with palms so you don't have to experience the pain! Look at my old threads to find various observations and tips!

Paul emailed me a few times, and yes he's monkey drunk on Saki and palm juice juice.

He sent me a picture from his phone of some of his new friends.

Very nice Paul. I think it is survival of the fittest in your garden. The silk floss is nice. You better hope it doesn't get all hulk up very soo. That's a pretty big Aloe Ferox in your garden. Did you plant it? If you did, when. Hehehe... I'm just currious because I have 2 one and a half footers. :rolleyes:

Looks like Paul is having a good time with his new friends. Taking the word 'monecious' to a new level.

That front yard needs a few more palms, I'll dig a few up and bring em over.

Paul,

Nice pics. of your garden, but I always thought you rented and lived in a duplex. At least thats what the guys told me when I was out in SoCal. But nice yard.

Oh, and whats up with the pink shirt your wearing? Not there's anything wrong with pink on a dude, but I was just curious, thats all. :)

Matt, I am not sure what I am more impressed with:

1) How much free time you have

2) How quickly you found those pictures and knew where to look

3) How good at photoshop you are

4) That Paul likes you

Bump!

Paul's back from Bali ...and with a mean case of VD if I shall be so bold to say. :drool: (odd emoticon choice but you'll get it)

I wanted to make sure he sees this thread and how much he was missed.

Paul,

Wow, nice yard man! The Bismarcks were my favorite. Very nice!

The large something-or-other succulent looking plant looks like a draceana draco. This how it looks like when it gets bigger... :drool:
