    Did you go along the walking track that goes up the mountain behind the gardens? It's worthwhile, there's some really tall Lepidozamia hopei. That species is the tallest growing of all the Cycads.

    No, but I want to do that. I only had a small amount of free time. I leave for another work trip to Papua New Guinea soon, but when I get back, I want to explore the area more fully.

    I miss FL, but it’s beautiful here. I’ve been enjoying tropical sights I only dreamed about for years.
