A Mini Yard Tour

OK, here's a mini yard tour. There's a generic peach brug on the far left at the beginning of the video. As I moved to the right you can see the tall Stuttgart cannas, Lime Zinger EEs, Black Magic EEs, my Santa Rose brug (doesn't show up too well), some tall Red Stripe cannas, Siam Ruby bananas and Black Stem taro. Immediately to the right of the Black Stem is my humongous Euphorbia cotinifolia (a small tree at this point), basjoo bananas, dahlias, misc. tropicals, and ending up at the Blue China Fir. Not sure if this movie will run.

    Dave,

    I'm loving the multi patches of Musa 'Siam Ruby', I got one this year myself to try....grows like a weed. Have you ever seen your bloom or get fruit? They say it strictly ornamental, however, I have heard of some fruiting...
    BTW, stunning garden...keep up the good work - looks absolutely amazing. Maybe, like you had received some advice or gardening tips from Martha Stewart....???? LMAO..!!!

    Next time I'll narrate it. But the neighbors probably would have thought I was talking to myself! It is somewhat shaky. I'll work on that. Also, I think I need to take more closeups. I wish I could embed the video right into GardenWeb instead of it opening Photobucket. Anyone know how?

    The plants are beautiful. Great combination of colors, sizes and textures. Next time try to hold your camera still. I felt like I was watching the Blair Witch Project! lol

  • 17 years ago

    The "link" worked. What a show! I'm jealous again!
    What's that clacking-clicking noise? Is it your teeth?????

  • 17 years ago

    Beautiful. I wish my EE would get that big.

  • 17 years ago

    Doesn't work for me. :(

  • 17 years ago

    Karyn, Blair Witch! LOL! Didn't know you saw those kinds of movies!

    Scott -- no, the Siam has never bloomed. I have four of them now and keep them in the garage.

    haase -- Teeth! Actually, my camera is just a cheapo digital, and the zoom button makes noise.

    I heard the birds in the background chirpping while on my trip through your beautiful lanscape... You really have a green thumb!

  • 17 years ago

    Just beautiful, Dave! Love it all.

    Dave it is simply "MARVELOUS" Great job in placement and choice of plants.

  • 17 years ago

    Wonderful!!!! Love the design! Your Stuttgarts are unreal!!!!! Fantastico! Mine are in containers and look horrible. Are yours in afternoon shade? I love your lime and black EE's. I will be looking for those next year. Did not see any here locally. I did find a lime green hosta & lime green alocasia? The ones that look like mini-EE's? Love those new colors in plants.
