Here's a link to a post about the garden from my blog:

http://freakofnaturezzz.blogspot.com...en-update.html

Its a work in progress and I eventually want to have a canopy mosty of different kinds of Palms .

Once we have the canopy established then the fun begins when I can start planting in the understory stuff including the carnivores-- hehe

Notice though that a lot of the plants are still small
