Thank you so much Tom for showing me around Southern Californian Palms! I had a great time seeing what was being grown down there, and was surprised how great all of the palms looked! I have some highlights posted here and then a link to the rest of the photos at the bottom! I forgot the names of the Dypsis, so please feel free to chime in!

Your not-so-average Phoenix roebelenii:

The Raphia farinifera at the Catamaran Resort has reached the end of its life. This monocarpic palm is fruiting!

Bismarckia nobilis - growing along the coast at the Catamaran Resort. Looks great!

Hyphaene growing great by the coast!

I agree with you, Dypsis Lutescens, although common, is one of my favorite palms. They are extremely graceful.

Great pictures!

That first post appears to show Josh's garden with his Hellacious HardscapeTM.

Tom's garden is Underrate Hellacious. It's been almost a year, and it's still sensational.

Kyle it was fun showing you our little corner of the world.

The first pictures were from the infamous Josh O Vista garden.

The pictures after my garden were taken at Mark's house in Oceanside.

The little Basselinia pancheri is actually a little Basselinia Humboldtiana.

Thanks again!
