It's been a long while since I posted anything in-ground, but everything has been doing pretty good!

The Needle Palm has been doing amazing as expected! There are now 5 suckers as there'es one more coming up in the front.

The Cycas Revoluta seems to be doing pretty good after defoliation. The new flush was definitely smaller than the original size of the leaves, but it should start looking how it did last year with a bit more protection. It even has a little offshoot next to it!

The tropical plants part of my garden has also done really well! Well actually not right now cuz of spider mites, but i've been trying to get rid of them lol. The Colocasia and Canna clumps I planted deeper this time, and not at the very top, so they might have a chance at surviving this winter. I know a Colocasia CAN survive a michigan winter because i've had a smaller clump survive one year before I accidentalyl killed it. the Ensete I will dig up once the frost hits, and store in the basement! Soon I need to put WAYY more mulch everywhere as it all got displaced from the last couple of years.
