Thank you Silas, i appreciate the warm welcome. I suppose big leafed and colorful. I have room for a few more plumerias. I just bought two avocado trees today. A mexicola and fuerte.  I would like a fig variety / daemerops or one similar. Im searching for a musa blue Java and one or two other edible banana varieties. I like the idea of having edible plants in my yard and things for polinators as well

:greenthumb: You're definitely in the right place..

For Ficus D. ..or another option w/ a similar look, but a bit hardier ( and easier to obtain ), take a look over this thread..
 


Countless threads to look through here as well concerning options for flowering things / mixing in edibles among your palm collection out there.

Can't go wrong w/ lots of Plumeria around the yard, for starts :D
