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. 😀

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

If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.

Wonderful garden, what zone is that?

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.
