The Chance Garden

Here's some shots from the backyard. Ravanea glauca doing well and probably would look even better with a little shade. Then there's Livistona chinensis next to Parajubaea sunka.  Cocoqueen that's now holding some seed and flowering like crazy.  My largest Beccariophoenix alfredii that actually broke loose during a storm in the winter had to be straightened. Chambeyronia I just planted last month under a mule for protection and last shot is a view from the patio. You can see the tribear with exposed trunk on the right.

Lovin that Tri-bear! :yay:

Thank you! It's my biggest of 3. The others are hard to take pictures of. Better seen in person.

Sabal yapa thanks to BrianK. Another more exposed Kentiopsis oliviformis starting to acclimate after being planted last summer.  Bunch of different Chamaedorea. Pseudophoenix sargentii getting some size to it.

Coccothrinax barbadensis, Livistona chinensis trunk,  Archontophoenix cunninghamiana which I was told shouldn't grow here but doing okay, and the last is about tribear tucked away. That tribear also is the most colorful of mine.
