hanapalms 12 Report post Posted December 11, 2011 Thanks for the fabulous tour. Seeing all those palms that take so long to grow makes me wish I started my garden with some of them twenty years ago. To plant now, I need fast growing palms. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bags 185 Report post Posted December 11, 2011 Pogobob's yard is probably the best example of being able to collect as many plants as you can and still have a yard that is aesthetically pleasing. One of the best yards in SoCa for sure. It is about time for an updated thread on Pogo's yard. PRA team where are you? Guest photographer Kim maybe? Could be epic.

Just1MorePalm 80 Report post Posted December 13, 2011 Now to the backyard. could you live here? Very Nice Yard...My first thought was Wow, great collection...My second thought...How do those P. Robellinis survive?... 30 years of planting everywhere around them yet they have been able to stay under the radar without getting the axe...And look good doing it...Open planting area is scarce...How much longer can they last?

joe_OC 1,387 Report post Posted December 13, 2011 Bob - Your yard has been my "inspiration" yard, and one that I always reference to. It's great to have a 30 year old, mature yard to look at. It's always a challenge to balance the collector and landscaper in me. I tend to lean more towards the landscaper. As Aaron has pointed out, your yard represents the perfect balance that I am hoping to acheive. Joe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
