Default Some winter garden pictures

Beside the wind blowing down the plants with fruit hanging several different times, the garden is doing pretty good I think. Here are some highlights.

Apple bunch that was blown down.


Jamaican Red bunch in the power wires. The green leaves are from another red in front of it. This plant has pretty much no healthy leaves left.

Orinoco bunch getting ready?



Pisang Klotek bunch still standing!


Hawaiian Apple stand showing some wear and tear! You can see my Dwarf Cavendish to the right.


Jamaican Red stand showing some winter color.


Heliconias, ginger, cannas and FHIA 18 in the center.


My Plumeria still with all it's leaves! Very unusual for this time of year in my neighborhood!


That's pretty much what's happening here. So far much better then the frosty winter that killed all the leaves last year. I have been eating a bunch of Hawaiian Apples that blew down months ago and even though they are not mature they are a taste sensation! The Reds that blew down just wouldn't ripen properly. All in all not so bad!
