Kamipalms 10 Report post Posted August 21, 2006 Great photos Kris! I think your unknown palm in post 14 is a Ptychosperma of some description and your unknown dwarf palm in post 19 is Chamaedorea elegans. Your pulmariea's look good too! Jason. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kris, The cacti on the left is Echinocactus grusonii. The one on the right looks like a Ferocactus sp., but I'm not sure what species. I agree with Kamipalms that you have a Ptychosperma for the palm in post 14. Great pictures, thanks for sharing! Jack Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gileno Machado 199 Report post Posted August 21, 2006 Wow... So we finally got to see you and your nice garden Kris, thank you. It's amazing how we cultivate similar plants around the planet...I know mangoes are from India, but we grow so many here different varieties and hybrids here in NE Brazil that you would be impressed... Also, its funny how you name the Neem tree with the portuguese word margosa (we say amargosa, or bitter taste...)... are you located near Goa? The Phoenix looks very nice...so perfectly trimmed, do you fix it by yourself? Now we are ready for some more pictures of Madras area too... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BS Man about Palms 2,329 Report post Posted August 22, 2006 Hi Kris! First off, great peek at your garden in the city paradise! Thanx! I would venture you get far more work done with your garden "hands" than I do!! Your bottle looks like the cross between the Indica and Lagenicaulis. Auyone else see it that way? And your Phoenix in post #62 is superb!!! You and your helpers and the "big one" have done an amazing job! Bill PS- Normally I would think you were nuts for leaving that tree there in front of the garage, but when you are in such a "green starved " area, I'd do just what you did! PPS- Looks like the next reply makes 3 pages!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
