Here's some more pics of the park in the highlands of Michoucan Mexico, that I didn't post last time.









Here's a link to the first thread describing the trip, and a few more picture(nicer ones)

Nice shots, dude! Thirty foot Ensetes must truly be impressive! They have a very nice flower too. I saw one blooming this past summer at a local nursery in the Houston area. I would say it was easily 16" across! I asked them if they were going to try to save seeds off of it (if it had any) but they said they weren't sure. This particular specimen was probably about 10-12' tall.

Thanks for sharing your pics and the story of your trip!

I'm really excited my dad just bought an old spanish building in the town nearby(Patzcuaro). I guess it's a total dump, but I'm still excited to go back there.

Michoacan is a place I really want to get to, as are a ton of other places in Mexico I haven't been to yet.
