Thanks for the comments guys and gals. This is my first year with bananas and tropicals and as you can see I'm going all out crazy already!

The grass is Penncross creeping bentgrass. I renovated my backyard last year and planted that in it. It's what golf courses use on greens and fairways. I keep it mowed at 1/2 inch.

The bench is ornamental. It's actually styrofoam with concrete cast over it, so if you sat on it...*SNAP*! I have 4 1/2 months to figure out how to protect my sago palm this winter. And I can't wait until my 10 musa basjoo's start pupping like crazy so I can fill up that entire mulch bed in my backyard and have a crazy thick banana grove!
