I’m posing in this photo just to show scale. This is one big palm.
Bismarckia Plant
Bismarckia is a monotypic genus of flowering plant in the palm family endemic to western and northern Madagascar where they grow in open grassland. Wikipedia
In this case, the Bismarck is growing in our friends’ garden about a 1/4 of a mile from our house. We took Greg’s brother over to see the palm garden. Randy is visiting from Boston and has never been here before. It’s a whole different world for sure.
So many wonderful palms grow on these 3 acres of land. Lots of agave, wild flowers, plumeria, and other wonderful things too. It’s a paradise.
Brothers in front of a triangle palm.
Lots to see at Bill and Shauna’s palm farm. We picked mangos too.
Don’t tell anyone, but I made mango ice cream again.
QUEEN PALMS
Such a gorgeous spot.
