Hey all... I've never posted any pics of my plants here before, so I thought I'd toss up a few pics from october/november of last year. Almost everything in these pics, except for the large basjoo clump, was planted last season. These are a few pics that I snapped in the fall before covering everything up... So far this year, I have had ZERO casualties!!! Let's hope that the wet spring doesn't kill anything off:)





Sorry for the huge post...

Hello Jova!
The ricinus look great! Did you grow them yourself from seed? I still havenΒ΄t received my castor bean seeds from Canada, itΒ΄s more than month already πŸ˜•
I like the big clump of Bananas too, I bet things turn really jungleish this year in your place πŸ™‚

Nice Post Jova!!!
The more the better, it's great to see pictures of what you've been up to. Everything looks nice and healthy even for early Nov, nice work!

Look forward to seeing more pictures once the weather warms up and things start popping.

Great pics,your yard looks awesome.

If you like Castor beans and want to try one with gigantic leaves,there is a seller on E-bay that sells seeds of this variety.

One of my Castor's leaves was 42" across.

Here's the link
