Honestly as someone who’s done an awful lot of landscaping, that’s by far one of the nicest tropical gardens set ups I’ve ever seen, even for outside of the uk. Well done 👏

Truly a piece of paradise on earth. I work on my small garden in central Greece almost daily and I can understand how much effort you have put into making yours, but it's a labour of love!

You did an amazing job! I like the choice plants! 👍🏼

[@tikitropicals65]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@lindseykaine-walley6339]

It looks amazing but I wouldn't keep the grass. I would put more borders in.

[@tikitropicals65]

Thank you for the comment. Gardens are individual and suit everyone’s own preferences. I think if people have pets, young children or grandchildren then lawns are needed for outdoor play areas.

Wow! Love the flowing design of the garden! We started our tropical garden in 2021 and it has good growth now.. but not looking as finished as this one.. yet.. :-)

Absolutely gorgeous garden. Definitely my garden goal!! How did you get it to establish so quickly. Those flowers ❤

Hi and thank you for the kind comments. Lots of the plants were a good size to start with and also fairly quick growers.

[@carmenb2920]

What a great job you guys did. What zone are you in? Zone 9? I love the plants!

[@tikitropicals65]

Thank you for the comment. The garden is in zone 8 on sandy soil.
