Wow!

Looks great as usual late Summer.

I like how you used the Sequioa corpse.

Also, great Passiflora pics.

Trachy palms getting big!

I remember you mentioning planting some vines on it a while ago....
I didnt want to ruin the surprise....

You may able to use it again next year.

I have done the same thing myself in the past.

I doubt it...the vines have overtaken it and have it in a stranglehold headed for the canvas...

Absolutely the best time of year when plants look perfect

beautiful as usual

The Gloriosa you sent me is also in flower Jim. I thought it was kind of late for that but apparently there on the same schedule still even when there 1000 miles apart..

Really happy to hear that Mike ............


guess my 3 headed one here will be a 4 headed one next year...

That's part of my concern though there is no new head or pups showing or even thinking about showing. It did so well the last 2 years I don't want it to kill itself out with out a pup to take over

I was worried about mine too -I thought it would rot over winter with no new growth point but it came the following year.

Awesome, looks like you had a great growing season.

Almost 10" of rain in the last 3-4 weeks
