:mrgreen: As always it looks superb Andy. I personally think you have one of the best gardens I have visited. So many of the plants you grow are the ones that I like but I could never achieve the look or setting that you have.
Some really good stuff there Andy, did the Bomarea caldassii ever flower? I ask because mine kept getting eaten, and was trying again when I left so not much chance of flowers this year
Thanks for the kind compliments guys.
Mark, I can thank you for a number of my plants. Remember the lumps of Semiarundinarea fastuosa and Phyllostachys nigra 'Henonis' I had from you?. They are now screening my neighbours house and garage from view IMG_1488 by atropica1, on Flickr
