Awesome, Bill, thank you for taking the time to post photos of your wonderful garden.

It's these kinds of posts I am always looking forward to seeing here in Palmtalk.

Sweet palms Bill! Thanks for sharing your pics with us.

What is this palm? I really like it. Reminds me of a young beccariophoenix and an attalea at the same time.IMG_20150922_23928.thumb.jpg.29393be5aa1

Great garden picture tour!!:drool::drool:

I really like the fact you have everything so spaced out so you can really take the whole palm in.

I'm stumped on this one. can you ID it? My guess is "Blue Decipiens"? Hovkona?

Hawaii, is that not the land of eternal summer? Very nice tropical garden there! Something we can only grow under glass at our chilly  52 degrees latitude north! Also a good climate for Nepenthes there I guess on Hawaii! And you get very spectaculair ones!

Bill- Wonderful post...thanks for sharing.-Peter

Cause lies don't need an aero plane / To chase you anywhere

Just a few shots of around the garden….

Bill, with these "just a few shots" you make many of us so enthusiast, It takes time to watch your pictures in details and see them again. 

Palmtalk allows us to see "just a few shots" like yours; Many thanks to you and IPS Palmtalk,  :)

but:
I know now that my garden is nothing. 
:crying: 

and I believe I should be able to identify all your palms and I am not!  :crying::crying::crying:
