Nice hedge of bananas!
And those yuccas are fabulous.

Is that a Dioon spinulosum between the two (don't know the name...is it two aucuba? bushes ) in first pic?

Great that your yard is a size where everything can develop so well.

Thank you both.

Barb, thats southern wood fern tucked between the acuba.

Jim, agave neo mexicana seems to be a prolific spreader. Super hardy to!

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.
