Greetings from Salt Spring Island, Canada. You have a very amazing exotic garden. We grow many palms and exotic plants on our island. Love them. Cheers

Hey, greetings from Florida. That's a great spread you've got there. If you ever want to try anything unusual, look through some of my videos and drop me a line. I'll be happy to ship seeds, cuttings, bulbs or living plants to you, to experiment with. Just give me a shout out in your video if the plants succeed! It's a no brainer to grow tropicals here in Florida, It's another thing entirely to get good results like yours up north. I really enjoy watching temperate climate folk achieve such great results! Do you get the Michael Cera look alike much? Cheers and feel free to hit me up for plants.

Hooked on your channel! Love your enthusiasm! I've had luck with castor beans and cannas...going to try bananas and elephant ears this year. Live near Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Great video. Im not sure if a Colorado winter is comparable to Illinois so Im interested to see how you prepare your garden for the winters months. I've been thinking about an elephant ear plant but I want it for indoors. I'm not sure if thats the right step though. Thanks for sharing.

Nice garden!..I've grown castor beans before but my wife made me dug them up for fear my dog or my young daughter might eat a seed pod( they are extremely poisonous and can actually kill you if you ingest a seed)....you should try adding some bananas to your garden, I have four or five different varieties now. I highly recommend ice cream banana or Mekong Giant because they grow very fast and can get 10 to 15 ft tall in one growing season if properly cared for and fertilized. I'll be posting a video of my backyard in a few weeks after my plants get a bit bigger....happy gardening!
