I'll just cut to the chase. First up, Archontophoenix purpurea. There were 3 planted together, and all showing purple.

Not quite as rare, but surprising for a theme park.

Very cool. The Sea World in Orlando has some unusual things planted out as well.

No one cares about your current yard temperature 🙃

How about BeerWorld? I'd go there. The marine life could swim in beer instead of water. Paul could have his own exibit where he swims in beer and balances balls on his nose for raw fish rewards. Wait a minute, that already exists. :huh:

Thanks to Anheuser-Busch, my normal SeaWorld experence is now wondering around taking pictures of palms, followed by free samples at the Beer Garden, and then staring at Clydesdales and miniature horses while my kids hit the rides. Not a bad way to spend the day.

I know their are probably micro-brew snobs out there, but to my unrefined tongue Michelob Ultra and Amber Bock are pretty damn good.
