prolifera was 12

The coconut was like 6 feet tall i think
must be long time before theyre 80
 
I think its like 7+ years...

Maybe I could make a Bonzi Coconut Palm Tree?
 
Nice -
I especially like the sisters.
 
hey, could somebody identify the mystery ping?
 
The mystery ping is gypsicola.

Hey Peter, we did have a nice time. It definitely was a hot one, but we tried to stay cool in the shade house.
Ed did a nice job of giving us the grand tour of the complex.

See ya next time!

The other Peter.

There are never any of these things in Michigan. I wonder how old that staghorn is. So far thats the biggest one I have seen in cultivation, but I have seen bigger ones in Australia. And is that a P. 'titan' I see behind the P. gigantea, not the P. agnata, the one in front of the black thing

. Also what is that strange looking plant above the coconut?
