Relatively new guy here. Garden is a little younger than everyone else’s. Views from the patio since that’s where we spend most of our time. 
 

and don’t be too jealous of my freshly laid St. Augustine Seville sod (wife’s insistence, not mine). 293260BE-00EA-4967-BE88-D64E1BDE0193.thumb.jpeg.86a972ab2f488c845f33cfd447227056.jpeg

Palms, palms, palms, everywhere. A few more shots. Having a two story house helps with the view immensely.

One more window view, front bedroom(also front door view).  I opened the window for the shot as it was a bit fogged up.  That one is a windowpane worth replacing.  I have some copernicia hospitas to plant near this one, but they arent ready to go in the ground yet.  I still have some spots in the front to plant but I do have to avoid the underground cables.

I missed this view thread.  Here is out my living room window (sorry for the reflection in the window) to the backyard at sunset:

A view from the window of my son's bedroom, which I use as an office in these times of confinement. Far from being unpleasant anyway!20200512_155240.thumb.jpg.26d1378cc88f5a21c9058b35a624fd83.jpg

Here is the view out of the center part of our sunroom. We have a small house and garden, but we made sure to dedicate a big chunk of the house to the sun room so we can feel like we are in our garden. We started this garden beginning of November last year, but planted most of the palms in Feb-March. In the pic you can see the following palms, but we have a few more out of view:

- Saribus rotundifolius

- Phoenix roebelenii x 5 (we have 6 total plus another sprout I just planted)

- Coconut palm x 3 (we have 4 total, but might be too many for our garden...)

- Foxtail palm (we have 3 total)

- Bottle palm

- Manila palm, but hard to see because they're so short (we have 4 yellow variety, 2 green variety)

- Some potted baby palms we plan to plant in the lot next to us which we recently bought such as date palms, coconuts, roebelenii, and a possible foxtail x manila palm hybrid

Wow another person in the Philippines! My wife and I would kill for that date palm! It looks like a perpetual firework explosion! I was going to ask where you source your palms, but I doubt you live in Luzon (I live in CALABARZON) given you've been quarantined for 2 weeks.

Wow, lots of great palmy views all over the place! This is the view from my desk, where I spend most afternoons getting work done, after having been outside in the morning. A  bunch of Dypsis prestoniana, Clinostigmas, Licuala peltata var. sumawongii, Dypsis saintelucei and Bentinckia condapanna. :)

Had a new screened in deck built to enjoy the view and keep out the sketters.  They have been really bad for almost a year now.  Can't go outside w/out sketter spray all over the body.

Any way here is the deck and my palms.  Many about 20 years old.
