Really busy summer.
Hope everyone's well.
Had to relearn photo embedding:
2 Washy filiferas with 6ml vapor barrier skin over steel fence posts. Old Solar pool blanket wrap next.
The yucca rostrata sure grew this year.

The little Brahea armata and Chamaerops humilis cerifera and the "unknown" yucca get the same treatment:

The yucca almost died last winter with only a plastic garbage can over it; here's what shot up from the roots this summer:

Ended up cutting off 4 or 5 fronds to get the Washies to fit inside the teepee frame:

Didn't get the palm hut installed over this guy.
Probably because we know it won't fit this year

Those Rostrata "sapphire skies" look superb. Is that your Grandchild I see on your Flikr pics? Looks a happy soul
