Nice pics of your garden Ari. That tropical low should be giving you some nice rain at the moment. :)

The rainy season is the best time for palm growth here and I can water with city water and they grow at a snails pace. Your palms look great.

Chrysophila.... the species I am not sure... I bought it as C. albida, but it doesn't look like it... I am very happy the way it looks at the moment...

Weather permitting, I will take more photos this week, including my foxy lady... Michael....

Good going Ari! Even though it hurts a little...we are sooo dry right now and I hope we can get through the next four months without losing too much! The dry season on the beach is a killer and March and April are just enough to put a sane man over the edge! Have a drink for me! Good Luck, Peter

Nice Ari-love the Breadfruit of course. I think there's a guy somewhere in OZ who sells seeds of some oddball Breadfruit varieties-I'll see if I can dig up the address.

I would love to have the contact, Peter... I love this artocarpus variety... I have jackfruit growing (the leaves aren't that interesting) and another one called pedalai (he called it A. seriocarpa - but I couldn't find any information on it). I love the leaves more so than the fruit... although breadfruit is yummy for afternoon tea snack...

Should I keep going with the photos... or everyone had enough of the tropical stuff...??
