Some nice palms Dave. Couldn’t see them from below as well when we were there. Roof top gives a nice perspective. A few of my larger palms .HarryIMG_4165.thumb.jpeg.2f1a9fa431373d5e7711c7619369b40e.jpegIMG_4167.thumb.jpeg.4080c037ae21e32d692e3cfa1e4cf950.jpegIMG_4158.thumb.jpeg.8da662c53ad1d6aa253660e005b92c2e.jpeg

Here's a top-down look at my phoenix, beccariophoenix alfredii to the right. Peek the dragonfruit climbing at the base of the phoenix

A bit to the left and you can see a trachycarpus leaf and plenty of chunky aloes (thraskii, vambe & others)

Unlike with bees, I laze around on the ground while my drone does all the high altitude work (photograpny).
Far more of a sensible arrangement, in my view.  🙂
