Probably one of the most gorgeous properties I have ever seen, if not the most gorgeous.  Thank you for sharing all of the pictures @Daryl!

These are all great photos and a beautiful garden!  This one sort of looks like Copernicia Prunifera or Alba, but I'm not sure.  Do you remember the species on this one?

I know right? Venture out once in a blue moon and the envy is REAL!

Chamaedorea stolonifera?

Yep, I'm pretty sure that is what it is. I always get this one mixed up with C.brachypoda as they do look similar.

Well it looks spectacularly robust, so how about D. Robusta? Lol

The street view of Stan’s garden is nothing short of breathtaking.  The views, the groupings, the individual specimens, the array of species, and the colorful bromeliads— looks like fantasyland for plant people. 

I think a month in Australia would be a good beginning...  Wow!
