| Wow! Your yard is so beautiful, you have really done a great job! Just looking at your pictures makes me feel like I am on vacation. I too have been planting a lot of tropicals in my backyard and am now wondering where I will keep them all for the winter. Do you have a greenhouse or do you take them all in your house? |
|
| I keep some in the house (basement) and some in a cool (60f) greenhouse Boca Joe |
|
| Amazing! Love the new pictures especially those of the orange flowers, passiflora (WOW, never seen this one before!), begonia, etc. Thanks for sharing your beautiful tropical garden with us. |

| Beautiful pics as always Joe!! I always enjoy your yard pictures, it's inspiring to me as I am trying to create my little piece of the tropics here. BTW, the Chicago pics from Lincoln Conservatory, was that a good way to spend an afternoon? I'm going to be in Chicago next month for business for a couple of weeks and have a couple of days to enjoy the area. Would you recommend it as a spot to go? |

| Sweet!!!!!!! |

| Your gardens are absolutely breath taking. Most impressive is that you are in a fairly cold climate. It must be quite a bit of work trying to keep everything alive all winter. Your plants look so healthy and nary a blemish. Wonderful! Thank you for sharing your photos. ~Tj~ |
|
| Well...I live in SW FL and I CAN'T GET THAT LOOK!!! LOLAM Just gorgeous, Joe! Oddly enough, that blue hydrangea looks right at home amidst the riot of color. BTW: How do you keep your Papyrus alive & kickin'? |
|
