Butia capitata
BUTIAcapitata
This Butia has rooted in nicely after a transplant almost 3 years ago. So far 9 new fronds this season with a full head of steam going into Fall. It's in a southern exposure and seems to like the summer heat and regular watering. How's your Butia doing? Cheers, Barrie.

Cactus
Jay,
The one one the left is Opuntia vulgaris. All together there is about 8 different types of cacti. Also in the dry garden are several Agave species. Almost anything worthy of a hot, sunny and dry site gets planted here.
*as a side note: I had Opuntia liguiformis in there but it collapsed from weight at about 6' tall. I cut it out and tossed it onto a mound of soil out back. Now this has rooted in since last year and is growing fine.
Cheers, Barrie.

Hi Barrie 
I know this is an old thread, but if you are still reading this forum could you post a few more pics of your yard? Looks like you have some very cool plants
I would love to see more

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.

I have been to Barrie's about two or three years ago and it was impressive then. I also would like to see some pics.
He had a home grown tropical plant business call Las Palmas Norte.
I wonder if he has a website?
I also heard he frequents the UK Oasis board.
