Another Red, White, & Blue for July 4th

I posted this same view off my lanai for a previous Independence Day. I didn't think you needed to be an American to appreciate it. I guess it is the Aussie colors as well.

At any rate, it seems to be especially colorful every year at this time. Who needs fireworks anyway?

Happy 4th to my fellow Americans!

Lovely palms, very nice. Red white and blue are also the colours of the UK and New Zealand, I think a lot of country's have those colours. Beautiful palms though mate, enjoy your national day.

Very nice palms.  Bleu, blanc et rouge in France also.  And Chile.  But I love the USA and Texas!

Stunning! What species are these?

Thanks for asking. I'm guessing you don't see too many of these in Norway. :) But two are a difficult grow most places outside of choice tropical areas - so not commonly seen by many.

Left to right - Areca macrocalyx, Dictyocaryum lamarckianum, and Dypsis lastelliana ("mealy bug form")

Not palms, but here is a photo of one of my grandma's front garden beds, proudly displaying patriotic colors for the occasion.
