Dragon fruit seeds from fruit I found in the market today - never seen them before much less tasted them! They had red skins and the flesh is an irridescent magenta color which looks amazing - they taste good too. Now I know I like them - I will rush back tomorrow to get some more.

Barbados Pride - the expensive seeds that I bought in England are doing nothing, but the locally picked seed germinates within the week, so the bought stuff must be old!! Grrr!

Also planted some pothos vine offcuts to climb up one of the fishtail palms that is flowering. I figure that if the palm is going to die in the near future, I might as well get a decorative covering going now. Of the 4 fishtail palms, one has local orchids planted on it, one has bromeliads, one has pothos and the last one has a small cut-leaved philodendron (or something similar) as well as that monster passiflora vitifolia.
