Hello, everyone!

This Saturday, we're having our big meeting.

The following Saturday, we're having our sale at the (former) Quail . . .

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The Robert Jenkins Garden

Mr. Jenkins has one of the most mature palm gardens in Ventura on an extra-large lot at the end of a cul-de-sac. His garden features towering, canopy-sized Howeas and Archontophoenix alexandrae and tuckeri, plus all kinds of other cool tropical plants, including palms thriving under that glorious canopy.

A stunning centerpiece is a mature Chambeyronea that is more than 20 feet tall, one of the biggest in Southern California. Other highlights include: a Dictyosperma album with 10 feet of trunk; trunking Rhopalistylus; trunking Cocothrinax over 7 feet tall; a Dypsis letpocheilos (Teddy Bear Palm) with 4 feet of trunk. There are about 20 species of Chamadorea including potchulensis, costaricana, nationsiana, elatior, glaucifolia, and plumosa
