Hey Igor, Nice pictures, Spasibo.
Is your Hedera by any chance Hedera canariensis?

Igor, beautiful garden, lovely selection of plants.

You're going to have to do some logging to find room for palms :lol:

What bamboo type is that?

Thank you guys for virtual watching my garden! I 'm glad you enjoy.
Di niente, Robreti The Hedera's species I have are included H.colhica (a wild form and two variegated varieties - Sulphur Heart and Variegata), H.helix (a few varieties), H.hibernica and H.canariensis (Gloire de Marengo) which hasn't been shotted.
Barb, I have a spare space for my palms for sure! THe bamboo that's growing in my garden is some species of Phyllostachys definitely. It has been sitting in one spot for 20 years but never run away surprisingly. A maximum height is 3.5 m only. Last spring I bought Phyllostachys auresculata that is supposed to be a great runner.
Cameron, I'm sure I would take nicer pictures in N.C. which I plan visiting some days.

Igor,
very nice design--great colors and textures.
The overall style reminds me of the gardens in Oregon (west coast of U.S.) where I grew up.
All those evergreen conifers should block winter wind, which will make palms easier. That makes me think a Trachycarpus would be a good addition. --Erik

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.

Igor, while I don't know much about bamboo (except that they become a forest that only a bulldozer can remove), I enjoyed seeing yours.
There are a few people here on Palms North who know every bamboo species just by looking at the picture.
a great runner.
careful what you wish for, Igor. :lol:

Will look forward to seeing where you plant your first palm.

Thanks Bill. I have no any palms in there. My greenhouse is not heated one. My Mom grows tomatoes seedling in early spring. To be frankly I bought my first palms for growing them outside next year just a month ago. I prefer keeping them this winter indoor.
