Some non-palms too - Alpinia rugose and a variegated banana.  I am not sure if it's the "ae-ae" cultivar from hawaiiDSC_3300.thumb.JPG.b47a91e8bc83ffc44c7b8DSC_3298.thumb.JPG.cfddbed273bb121b16684

Oh, very nice choices!  You are able to source these locally? That reminds me... I need more Licualas!

Great plants, you are fortunate to live in such a lovely part of the world.

It is not dead, it is just senescence.

Where did you find the alpine rugosa? It's been on my wish list for a couple years but I haven't found a source for it.

You have gorgeous new plants. Congrats.

I am in the Philippines and I usually get the really rare stuff in the annual plant shows we have over here. You just have to come early and saved up a lot of money -- because the rare and unusual stuff tends to go fast and are usually priced at a premium.
