A healthy young garden. I wonder what those palm trees will look like in 10 years. Nice job!

Re: Backyard - August 2010 (lots of bananas inside!)
Your yard is very beautiful! Excellent work and planning have all succeeded IMO. I love all the bananas and palms.....and the pencil cypress are always a fave of mine.

Re: Backyard - August 2010 (lots of bananas inside!)
All us northerners are thinking "you suck" because we can never have a yard like that. So I won't be the one to say it. Looks awesome and I can only wish...someday..when I move to Costa Rica I will rival that...but for now I can only envie you...Looks awesome.....had to say it again.

Re: Backyard - August 2010 (lots of bananas inside!)
What a gem of a garden!! You're hard work is certainly been worthwhile. Please continue to post pics as it changes for the seasons and matures even more. Now why can't I grow a garden like that? Oh yeah, gol damn winters.
