Memorial Palm Garden

19 years ago

I just wanted to post a photo of a memorial palm garden I planted in memory of my wife who passed away last month of cystic fibrosis. My friends and family know I am a palm nut, so my cousins bought a nice pygmy date, and my co-workers bought a nice queen palm. I had room in the middle so I bought a windmill palm. It turned out really nice and I just wanted to share with you all.
