Plant collection summer growth

[happypalms]

With high summer temperatures the growth in the tropical plants in the collection are loving life with a few thunderstorms for some extra humidity and some 40 degree Celsius days combined with temperatures above 30 degrees for weeks on end makes for some great tropical plant growth most of my tropical plants practically go dormant in winter sulking for summer heat growing in hothouses makes a huge difference in winter for tropical plant growth oh to live in the tropics a palm growers delight

Nice collection! Where do your seeds come from? Can you buy RPS seeds in Australia?

My Aroids and Alocasias have gone mad this year. The Hoyas too have had massive growth spurts. Most of the palms are growing nicely but both Veitchia species have gotten 'log jams' with leaves opening all at once and staying stunted and short. What are those pretty palms with entire leaves in front of the second photo down ? My back is still giving hell so I am not going anywhere just paying bills so I might buy myself a christmas present or two. (nobody else did )
