Tropiclaud, you did that, the birth of your garden is it’s absolutely beautiful, tropical gardens are my favorite and I too have a tropical garden. oh yes and the picture of you is also absolutely gorgeous.

[@tropiclaud]

@@101candlelight6 Thank you for your kind words! Yes it’s been a labour of love but truly worth it as the garden keeps evolving. I hope your garden is thriving 🙌

music is really nice

[@tropiclaud]

Thanks so much! Music is another passion of mine so the two have to go hand in hand❤️

[@MXGi]

I’m inspired by this video. Going to binge watch your channel then go plant shopping, again!

[@tropiclaud]

Gardening videos aren’t great for the pocket! Glad it’s inspired, enjoy this space! Have a lovely weekend 🌿🌿❤️

Well done you! What an incredible journey. You must be so pleased with the results. Sending tropical plant love 🌱💚 from Tasmania, Australia

[@tropiclaud]

@@Berzyberz tropical plant love received and sent back!☺️❤️ It’s been so much fun, and become even more rewarding as the garden has evolved. Thank you for the kind words and encouragement 🌿

Such a beautiful journey! Thank you for sharing!

[@tropiclaud]

Thanks so much! I would have never imagined gardening to become as enjoyable and rewarding as it has! 🌿❤️

[@traceyrowlands1220]

I absolutely love this video. It's funny to think that during lockdown, many of us were doing exactly the same thing, discovering Tropical Gardening. You have done an outstanding job on yours ❤ Excellent work x

[@tropiclaud]

Aw Tracey thanks so much. I literally came from a zero base on gardening, but I’ve found something that I love, and love learning about! Currently researching new plants to try as we speak. Keep up the great work with yours as well. Ever-evolving and getting better all the time x

[@melissaschloneger9902]

I love how much you really learned and created so much in so short of a time - so impressed

[@robbieg3014]

Wow, great vlog and visual presentation of your tropical journey so far.

[@tropiclaud]

Thanks so much for the feedback! It’s been lovely reflecting on where we began and there’s still so much potential left as the garden evolves.

[@aroid_artist]

Amazing job. You came so far so quickly

[@tropiclaud]

Thanks so much! I do owe much of the progress to the plants, many of which size up well in a single season. Really pleased with the progress so far. Thanks again

[@theimbiber]

Very impressive and in a relatively short time congratulations , I have just started my tropical garden journey so fingers crossed for over the winter and look forward to more of your inspirational content !

[@tropiclaud]

Thank you so much for your feedback. All the very best with your journey with tropical planting, it's truly rewarding and the experimentation aspect is what makes it even more fun!

[@jackfletcher2786]

Wow this is awesome. Very inspiring. I started a couple of years ago, much like you but my garden is no where near as brilliant looking as yours. Wow! I'd be so tempted to make a water feature in that walled area near your patio if i had that space. I always look forward to your videos, as being in shropshire, we're bound to have a similar climate, so i get a lot of inspiration from the plants you have chosen. Keep them coming 😊

[@tropiclaud]

Lovely to hear from you Jack, great minds clearly think alike. Guess what I’ve been looking for over the last week? A water feature for that exact spot!! I’ve seen some that can create a water fall effect and I’m considering the idea! My tiered planter is pretty much set in stone just behind that wall but I reckon I can work around it. Thanks so much for the feedback and support. Hope all is well in your space. These plants size up quickly so it shouldn’t take too long to get things going. Have a lovely day.

[@jackfletcher2786]

@tropiclaud9064 Never!! 😂 Well, I look forward to seeing a water feature on one of your videos soon. I have a child's play shed at the bottom of my garden. Once outgrown I plan to incorporate a greenhouse and a water feature. All plans for the future at the moment however. My space has been ok, just tidying now for the winter so that hopefully next year it can be somewhere near as lush as yours. Take care now.

[@juliebrace8637]

Hiya, hope your well. Im sooo loving your tropical journey. Im so inspired by you from where you started. Great content ❤ love Julie Stoke-on-Trent xx

[@tropiclaud]

Awww thanks so much! I love your city too as I studied there ❤️ thank you for the lovely feedback. Gardening is so much fun, I can’t wait to learn what is possible in 2024 and beyond🤗.

[@juliebrace8637]

Really, what did you study? My daughter in law is part of the trauma team at A&E Stoke. ❤

[@tropiclaud]

@@juliebrace8637 Much respect to her 🙏 I studied law there and have fond memories. Have a lovely weekend.

[@juliebrace8637]

Are you a solicitor? Yes I'm very proud of her. She too loves tropical gardens 😊 and asked me for ideas 🤣 on plants. I'm just getting started this year and I look to you guys for inspiration and knowledge ❤ you too have a lovely weekend 😊 x

My story here is I was from a tropic place, feel so cold here and sick of deciduous and pines. tropical leafy plants makes me feel warm and at home, i bought my fist tropical plant Pheonix canariensis from Lidl( I begged my parents) cause it was cheap. Then I figured out yucca elephantipes the houseplants are hardy so I bought some ( also from Lidl cause they cheap). Then I added some fatsia japonica( also cheap). I also added hosta when they’re on discount in autumn. Later I found out there’s hardy banana trees so I ordered two Musa basjoo, they’re now still indoor I’ll plant them out in spring. My plan for later is to buy hardy agaves and aloes . Also thinking of adding different palm trees like Chinese windmill palm , Mediterranean fan palm , Bangalow palms or sago palms.also thinking of adding cordylines. But still need to get them one by one cuz I’m still in secondary

[@tropiclaud]

I love this. You brought home, to you! And with supermarkets like Lidl making tropical-style plants affordable, it’s possible to achieve an exotic garden right here in the UK. The palms and agaves will certainly take your garden to the next level. I also bought my sago in a supermarket. Don’t be afraid to buy small as they will establish well and be away in no time. And one at a time is just fine. Rome wasn’t built in a day! All the best with your gardening journey!

[@fansaaga4033]

can sago palms go outdoor yearound? missed the chance last month i thought theyre not hardy😢

[@tropiclaud]

@@fansaaga4033 Hi there, it depends on where you are and how cold your winter gets. Sago palms would be vulnerable in long-term exposure to frost and the fronds would go brown. They may return, but it takes such a long time for them to grow in the UK that the palm would not look at its best for a long time. I have brought my sago indoors for the winter into an unheated conservatory. It’s doing fine in there. I will bring it back out in Spring. Hope this helps!

[@fansaaga4033]

ok im in dublin zone 9 maybe ikk get them next time if ive luck. are there any tropical fruit trees that can thrive here?

[@tropiclaud]

@@fansaaga4033 I bought mine in Morrisons supermarket, you may find them in your local supermarkets in late spring/early summer. As for fruit trees, we can grow pomegranates, figs, Chinese loquat, and even kiwis.
