Incredible garden Tony. Thanks for posting. I am a little warmer, but not that much warmer. Your photos over the years have been a real inspiration to this not even close to tropical gardener.

That was a lot of fun hanging with everybody. Matt's garden is dense with lots of treats. I'm sorry I couldn't stick around longer at Tony's. I really liked the leaning Trachycarpus. And the bamboo! Wow.

Tony!

Yours has always been one of my favorite palmtalk gardens! The picture labeled "Dallas July 2013" is a stunner and a palmtalk classic! :):)

As the possible snow and freezing rain approaches I looked up Tony's garden to give me some hope. I think I will plant some Trachy's this spring.

I have 3 trachys. The ones in shade look awesome. The one in full sun struggles.
