Hello from the Philippines

[gbarce]

I've always been interested in plants and am particularly interested in the rare, exotic, interesting and bizzare ones.

I live in an old ancestral house that has rather large gardens and I am trying to fill it with plants that are out of the ordinary.

I've alwas been interested in carnivrous plants but have not really gotten into them in a big way.

I've tried venus fly traps before but was only able to grow them for a few months.

Right now I am trying to get a variety of palms to create the canopy for our gardens but I also collect anything unusual that I come across.
