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.

Love that CIDP and the new palms and yuccas!
Tons of growth on your cactus already.
Thanks for the pics.

Beautiful place, nice pictures! Damir, believe your CIDP costs much more than all these palms along the Croatian riviera!

great photos Damir! Great scenery. I would love to vacation their.
Do you have an update photo of your small Y. faxoniana? The leaves appear very narrow for a Y. faxoniana seedling. I received Y. faxoniana seeds from Mesa Garden back in 2001 and they grew into hybrid plants (crossed with a narrow leaf yucca). Some are still alive in my garden but very slow growing.
