🪴 From Karen:
"We live in West Oxfordshire in a very normal house, people are very surprised when they see what lays behind it!
We brought our first Musa Basjoo 19 years ago and the Trachycarpus 25 years ago. We redesigned the garden 6 years ago to incorporate the hot tub.
I think the coldest temp was about -8.
My favourite plants are the musa’s, T Rex and the Butia.
Most of the difficult plants that I find hard to keep in the ground like the Tea cup Colocasia, Burgundy Stem Colocasia, some cannas, bird of paradise I keep in pots and bring into the greenhouse for overwintering.
My dream plant is a traveller palm, we saw them growing huge in Florida.
My advice to new gardeners would be to plan where your plants go relating to sun and shade and look at how they naturally grow in the native environment. Also improve the soil for the greedy plants. We enrich with well rotted manure at least once a year.
Next year we are looking at moving some plants that are outgrowing their space and replant one of the sides of the walkway."
This is the best private tropical garden I've seen while scouring online for tropical ideas. It's surprising and encouraging how much is in this yard. Lovely, lovely job! I agree with the narrator about the balance between hardscape and plants, and the mix and arrangement of plants was very well done. Thank you for sharing this very inspiring garden.
Couldn't agree more! Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment
Absolutely stunning garden and divisions of sitting space.

Really beautiful garden. A garden tour going over the plants would be great to see, since they all look like they are in great condition too.
WOW! This garden is legendary!!! The hot tub🤩Fetch me the vision board, stat!

I love the lush plantings around the circular small lawn. A mature, well designed garden - tropical paradise. Thx for the tour!
Fabulous garden Karen.

What a beautiful tropical garden in an unusual place, she's been very successful, very well maintained
Wow that's stunning, congratulations 😍😍😍🍾
I've only seen the new vid with the wonderful tiki bar & pond now installed ,but this is for me the bench mark for tropical gardening in the uk (pure quality.
Love love love it
Ah this is the EXACT aesthetic I'm going for in our garden. This is so inspiring. Just trying to figure out where to start and how to get the plants/seeds. I wish our ground wasn't such hard clay in our area. It makes it really hard to dig and for roots to break through.
You can do it! When we started the Grow Paradise garden it was just stones and heavy clay. Now we have a tropical garden and online tropical plant nursery. Maybe our transpiration video will inspire you: ua-cam.com/video/uqWykluW2e4/v-deo.html
@GrowParadise I'll take a look. We have hard red georgia clay. Even our tractors auger can find spots where it can't break through and we think we've hit rock, but it's just clay. So I'll definitely look into this! Thank you!
Absolutely stunning and beautiful a retreat

Absolutely love this. My garden goals. I'm 6 years into growing mine and I've made so many changes...I can't wait until it's mature and lush like this
Appreciated seeing this thank you so much xxx
To be honest gardens in tropical countries never look like this, very organized. Most people in tropics grow fruit trees, plants and root veggies along with herb plants and flowering plants, they prefer to get as much fresh supplies as they could get. Given their climate it is the nest choice as well rather than having a manicured garden with a lawn 😂. Banana, jack fruit, citrus trees, chilli plants and hibiscus are super common.
Very true, for us its more about selecting big leaves and bold colours that give the appearance of a tended to ornamental 'tropical' garden.
Beautiful 💚❤️
stunning
Karen- expert 👌🏻

As soon as I saw the hostas it lost the tropical feel for me and the day lilies even more so.
