Lovran/Croatia, a tour of my friend 'Lovranpalm' garden

Lovran has a mild climate, protected by the Ucka mountains. Trachycarpus fortunei has became naturalized in the surrounding hills.

Pictures is from summer 2011. Hope you will enjoy.

The diversity is incredible.
Naturalized trachies are wonderful.

Really like the trunk-cleaned Washies and the blue palms.
Think I saw a Mimosa (silk tree) too.

What a palm paradise!
Everything looks so healthy. :D

After seeing those great photos, I may quit this hobby here :lol: :lol:

Wonderful garden, what zone is that?

What are the pink flowers, are they bougainvillea?

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.
