Wow, what an excellent palm park! So many outstanding palms. I wonder, are the palms watered by natural rainfall only, or is there supplemental irrigation? Who has created this park?

Thanks for all these wonderful palm photos!

Thanks for the pictures!

Like seeing old friends in a new place, while meeting wonderful new ones!

Keep them coming.

And don't be afraid to show us the island and its people, etc.

Most of us will never have the chance to see for ourselves as you have.

I re-ask Kim's questions.

We'd like to do public palm plantings here in California and finding out how that one came together could be very instructive.

Do you have a Web address with these pictures that shows the palm names, as you gave us for the habitat photos that you showed earlier?

Olivier,

What an absolutely outstanding and impressive collection, and beautifully landscaped. :) And that rockwall is first class! I'm guessing the palms that are leaning were planted like that on purpose - looks somewhat bizarre, though!

Oliver, great pics of a well spaced garden on deep red soil, I can id most "apart" from 1st pic post 12, I have no idea, what is it pls Oliver.

Love the Cyophosperma B's and Burretiokentia V's and I imagine the "leaning" Pigafettas are planted in a "high wind" area of the garden?

Great garden, great pics.

Pete :)

All the park is irrigated by water supply equipement as you can see there on the left in the background
