Took some pictures tonight on how things are coming along.

Yucca filamentosa 'color guard' and magnolia grandiflora '24 below'.

Magnolia is growing pretty fast for just being planted.

Expanded perennial bed to include some more tropicals and a desert bed.

Musa orinoco pups that I separated and small ensete maurelii.

Christmas palm.

Cactus bed.

Wider angle of some beds.

Cannas are starting to grow rapidly. They all started out as bulbs this spring.

Rhododendron has doubled in size with its new growth.

Musa orinoco that I overwintered and new baby musa basjoo.

Another bed with an ensete maurelii, yucca filamentosa 'color guard', thai black banana and another rhodo.

Ensete maurelii getting LARGE.

Another wide angle shot.

Trachy I planted in 2008.

Trachy I planted in 2010.

Bonus photo - Venus transit.

Did not realize that you live on a golf course... That grass is perfect.

Hope 24 below does well for you.

Yes, neat Christmas palm. I have none left. Please take care of it!

Rest of yard looks fabulous. Glad you are taking out lawn and expanding the beds.
