Allen, everybody except me seems to be able to open your pics...I just get blanks! 😡

Josef...you have beautiful beautiful plants and a very good eye for design/placement.
Congratulations on a stunning vignette.

The first cacti pics have disappeared from the image host. The others are still there. Can you see the first pic of the first post?

Allen, just tried it again. Links 2, 3, and 4 are totally blank...nada.

Link 1, nice landscaping job, the curve is very attractively done.
Link 5, hens n chicks (close your eyes and they'll overtake your place, ha ha).
Link 6 + 7, yuccas in gravel. Nice start. They'll do well there in full sun.

The dead links looked like they were prompting to POST/UPLOAD an image, rather than displaying an image.

Allen,

Have you read about yucca thompsoniana? Apparently its almost identical to rostrata but hardier. The faxoniana and Elata have performed very well at a zone 5 also. I think yucca's are way hardier with age, once they have a good trunk forming they will be much better off then when they are on the ground where they can rot much easier.

Thanks Nate.

I'll do some reading about them while I wait to hear from 'Kelowna Barry'. I expect a call or email any day now as he said that his truck will be picking the palms etc. up in mid April.

I am not sure whether I will put more effort into yuccas this year. I may just concentrate more on palms and watch your experiment in zone denial.

I should have a trailer by the time that I go down to Kelowna. I may be able to haul back more than I expected if the weather cooperates.

Allen

Hi
Few new pics

Josef

Allen leave some room in that trailer to take home Okanagan Springs 1516 beer from their Vernon brewery! 😉

Josef, unbelievably beautiful! I hope the City of Prague has considered your landscaping for a beautification award...man, what you've done to my perception of "eastern" inland europe (my birthplace). 😯 <---icon for utter amazement.

Just a guess on your agaves Josef , maybe A. havardiana, A. neomexicana, A. parryi, and A. utahensis? 🙂

Hi Aaron
Right !!!!
Josef

Hi.
My desert is complete

Josef

Josef, as always stunning.

There's new growth on all of them, so I'm guessing you're in Zone 6 ???

In the North Okanagan of BC, we're having one of the coldest springs in recent memory.
A bit of growth showing on the yucca, fruit trees in bloom, but COLD...

Congratulations on your desert.
Barb

That is WOW 😯 Your yard is so nice and clean 8)

Hi
Hesperaloe parviflora beginning bloom

Josef

Beautiful.
I had never seen a red yucca before so I googled the latin name.
Stunning desert plant.
Looks better than the filamentosa I have.

Congrats AGAIN, Josef!
