Hola Zac, right, the Artocarpus is either camansi or altilis (believe it`s camansi).

This garden is in Culiacàn, Sinaloa (it`s a 8hr trip car south of Hermosillo or 8 hr from Guadalajara or 1.5 hr from Mazatlàn).

Believe Rophaloblaste is actually Dypsis leptocheilos (tried to remember theirs names).

Saludos.

Zac and Wal,

I don't know how so many pics got posted. The "permissions" are set to a max of four.

I thought maybe when I set up the new forum "Travel Logs" I forgot something, but I don't see it.

I'm checking with my Mike, my tech back-up.

Thanks to those of you who help make this a fun and friendly forum.

Zac, Wal thanks. Seems I got some privileges about posting pictures in here.  :laugh: I hosted my pictures in photobucket and then linked here, that`s it.

Jeff, there`s simetry on that group of regias, so there is another group of regias at the other side of the pond (where I took the pix), it`s a pretty nice show to watch, and the entrance to the garden is free.

Jeff, I was just thinking the same thing. Someone should make a note of it for next year's contest.

Hola Leo,

I think I´ve seen some of these pictures before :-)))))

I´d like to see a picture from the ponds with the Roystoneas in both sides!

Coryphas and Attalea are very cool.

Muchas gracias.

Saludos,

Carlos

Me suenan esas fotos, me suenan.  W el "reciclaje transforístico"... a ver cuándo la IPS nos pone un foro en Español y dejamos de estar de nómadas desterrados.

Sigo quedándome con la Corypha utan.

Saludos,

Carlo
