My little bit of northern paradise
My little bit of northern paradise
After the last two winters and many loses I nearly gave up on the tropicals .... but with encouragement I realised I could grow plants from seed to fill the gaps and BUY NEW PLANTS It's finally coming together hope you like
Re: My little bit of northern paradise
Your garden looks great lee-ann!
Well done.
I know how you feel about giving up. I must admit that I have chickened out slightly and gone for very hardy exotic lookalikes this year as I can't be bothered with the losses any more.

Scott the mammoths are growing slowly but surely.....
Tom to be honest the garden was neglected last year but I've got my butt in gear this year so hopefully it'll look great just in time for me to bring them back in for winter
Thanks for the encouragement guys

Re: My little bit of northern paradise
I wish my pup collection is growing slowly ...I will have my T-rex plantation one day .......but sadly the larger section will be a race track for my son's power chair with a small raised bed for a few catalpa tree's and the other patch has been promised to my larger agave's if they ever get plantedMr List wrote:especially like the fernery

Re: My little bit of northern paradise
Looking lovely lee-ann. The garden looks great and there is a lot of interest. I would give those nanas and arundo a good soak in the last photo of the first set posted. They look thirsty!
Re: My little bit of northern paradise
they've certainly had a soaking during the last couple of days ... they've not been planted long so hopefully they'll look a bit healthier in a couple of weeks
