I have the palms out of the pots and in the ground now.  Since January I have just been cutting back the giant night blooming cereus that was in the middle of the yard.  The cuttings are heavy and the easiest way to get rid of them is to put them in the city supplied garbage can w/wheels.  I then roll it out to the curb and they take care if it.  One load of the cactus must weigh close to 100 lbs.  On the left you can see some of the stone outlined beds from the very first picture on page one.  In the center in a small cement pot is a Euphorbia we picked up a few weeks ago.  It is a small tree know as Pride of Barbados, although the seller called it Pride of Jamaica.  I believe it to be the same.

Haven't really done much since march.  I have been cutting the cactus back and a few more of the scrub trees.  But look how the flame tree has grown.  Even the palms show good growth.
