Tassie_Troy1971 1,062 Report post Posted August 18, 2014 Nicely landscaped and a great selection of palms for your area Have you tried getting a Brahea armata ( silver foliage ) and Brahea edulis would look great and are very hardy too ! Brahea armata in pic ( not mine ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

samirbouag 113 Report post Posted September 15, 2014 hi thanks a lot for your comments, i appreciate! i like the song too, but i have no idea about the name and artist of that song , youtube proposed it to me when i was editing the video. yeah dave you should come to Europe there're a lot of beautiful places! the French Riviera and South of Spain are the best place to grow palm trees and yeah in Switzerland it's crazy how a lot of palms can grow easy! a lot of beautiful garden around the lakes!

Rafael 407 Report post Posted September 15, 2014 Thats not a right statement. South of Spain allows growing some kind of palms. Other species work much better in wet temperate and oceanic climates. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sandy Loam 313 Report post Posted October 17, 2014 C’est vâchement beau, SamirBouag. En plus, c’est impressionnant la manière dont vous avez serré toutes les plantes ensemble dans la bordure du jardin. Comme ça, vous avez de la place pour la pelouse et la piscine. Cool. Je félicite aussi ceux qui se sont occupé du maintien lors de votre absence prolongée à Miami. Wow! ….franchement. D’ailleurs, la pelouse est impeccable; c’est tellement parfait que, de loin, ça ressemble presque au faux gazon. Comme vous l’avez constaté sans doute, le gazon à Miami est complètement different. Les brins d’herbe sont beacoup plus larges et durs. Ce n’est pas doux comme le gazon chez vous. Malheureusement, les pelouses miamiennes ne sont pas vraiment faites pour s’étaler dessus. Merci de vous avoir accueilli dans votre beau jardin, SamirBouag. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pip 753 Report post Posted October 18, 2014 I have the same trouble with growing turf in my region of Australia. Summer is just to hot and dry I prefer to spend water on other plants. But if we do get a torrential fall of rain then the dry yellow grass greens up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
