TROPICAL GARDEN IN DELTA

While driving out to do an estimate I came by this oasis . I had to stop and talk to the owner who invited me for a tour,  This guy was the master of banana  explaining to me the different varieties which will survive in the lower mainland and his method of growing them. I never used to see these growing here 20 years ago. Global warming or plant fad?

      

Nice star shaped boxwood and major bamboo
