Duke. Very nice collection of palms, bananas, bamboo, cactus, and other exotics. Do you put the potted plants into the double garage in the winter? Great video thanks.

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

Just to clarify,

That's not my garden. Just saw the video on youtube, and thought to post it here because it's in a relatively cool zone 7.
All credit to "bamboomoe" for the video and the garden.


Most of my tropicals are in pots, and the few plants I left in the ground this year won't probably make it seeing how we had a low of -26 Celsius one night.
Even rhododendrons seem to be really suffering at these temperatures.


I'm attaching some pictures from my garden from a previous year.
I hope to make a video this summer so maybe I'll post it here as a follow up, since I added many new plants.
