Looking fantastic this year, aloes look great!  I like the dry look you’ve got going on, more time for relaxing. You’re going to love the new bromeliad when it blooms.

Looks fantastic!  Love the aloes.

Do you have any other palms that you want to try? 

Hello,

Thank you much :)  yes i planned to order online new palms that i'm going to plants in springtime: dyspis decipiens, sabal yapa, parajubaea sunkha.

But the thing it's my 9a 8c USDA zone, i have a limitted choice on what can i grown, but as spring comes i'm going to try to plant an achontophoenix illawara, i love this palm so much and i'd like to have one in my garden  :) 

 

have a nice day

Thank you much, i'm happy you like it ;)  no i didn't try yet, but the aloe i got here are very fast to grow, so if the striatula is faster its so cool :) i'm gonna check if i can find some on them and try them :) thanks for your tips :)
