I am still amazed at what I saw at your place last week! Specktacular

[freakypalmguy]

It does look killer Clark. I would love to come back out when I have a bit more time to really check it out. Thank you again for the bamboo hook-up dude.

Wow! Fantastic Garden/Palms and tremendous pictures! Thank you

[MattyB]

Clark's got one of the most interesting geological formations I've ever seen too. He's got a canyon out back where there are fingers of land that stick out with sheer drop offs on either side. I hope you show some pics of those areas Clark, it's amazing what nature has formed there.

[LJG]

Clarks place is killer. The thing he forgets to point out that I find amazing is that his place is 100% organic. Something I hope to achieve in the future. Trust me Clark, I take mental notes when you talk.

[MattyB]

That's funny, because I get mental when you talk Len.

[LJG]

I would rather have that then you getting Menthols.

That's funny, because I get mental when you talk Len.

Nice garden Clark.

I am AMAZED that all those crownshafted palms in your garden SURVIVED 20 F!

I thought the last time you posted, the lowest you got down to was 22 F, even that temp 22 F here in Florida would have melted most crown shafted palms,ie kings,spindles,royals, vietchia, not to mention pulmeria! You definately have some COLD HARDY palms!

[PalmGuyWC]

Wow, Wow and double wow. Fantastic garden. It's hard to believe you got down to 20 or 22F in 2007. Amazing.
