Slender weavers bamboo
Golden cane palm
Alcantarea Giant Bromeliad
Bromeliad neoregelia
Cordyline fruticosa rubra
Cordyline fruticosa negra

the hardest part is planting for the future. I want my tropical jungle then you realize when you first moved in 15 years ago you shouldve done all of this then. omg. i would have had a big mango tree by then.

I especially love dracaenas and yuccas, they're so tough and hardy, without all the drama of palms.

Wow that's great I grow most of those plants as house plants anyway. I just have to dig them up in the fall the winter get blow 0.

Cool. Those Golden Canes will suck so much in that area though. I have found it so hard to grow plants in the ground around canes. The canes just take everything and don’t leave a chance for the other plants. Use pots instead!!

Looks great. I live in Florida so those are all very common plants here. I am redoing my front yard after having to cut down my huge Laurel Oak. Now it is full sun and I need to make some shade.

I love how he just.... casually asking the neighbors next door to sell the plants to complete the project 😅😂 it look so much cosy now, but I would add a bench or some shading devices

Can the Golden cane palm, take full sun ? And windy conditions? And Alkaline soil ? Or soil needs amendment?

[ballisticbadger]
