Heaps of palms about. Could have planted more Archonto's. They had a purpurea. Bismarks were quite happy. Rhopies were quite plentiful with the biggest one being close to 4 metres. Cycad collection was ok a little dull. At least the one I grew up with in South Africa was quite plentiful and big. Encephalartos altensteinii. Linospadix monostachyos was quite plentiful. Otherwise a wonderful visit and strangly I didnt have time to get to the ACTUAL palm section..
