Great inspiration kris. I wouldn't have been as interested in gardening in general if I hadn't seen your channel. Never thought you could grow such plants in our climate. Keep up the good work!

I first saw this about 18 months ago & now I have a tropical garden. Was really inspirational.

bloody hell another Yorkshire lad! nice vid Kris, I cant believe them palms are growing up north. I would have thought it to be way too cold.

We can grow all sorts up here 🌴🌴🌴😀

My grandfather used to grow lady finger bananas on his old farm when he was running it,he just got too old to run it & he died last August at nearly 98 years of age. He was growing the purple stemmed elephant ear or as is also known as the Taro plant,him,my dad & his family used to eat the tubers after they were cooked. They'll grow in an oceanic climate such as Yorkshire in the U.K. or Melbourne in Victoria in Australia,my grandfather grew them in a humid subtropical climate which was near the Queensland border in New South Wales. The land that they were grown on was ideal because it was on a hilly property & the area had plenty of water,so they were well watered & had good drainage. The banana plantation has been there since about 1950 but they aren't there anymore, my grandmother is in a nursing home now,the bananas have gone a bit "seedy" now as they haven't been watered or fertilised for years,the water came from the creek. I live closer to Sydney & my area is classed as humid subtropical but the climate up near the border seems different, I know we have less rainfall than they do up there. Some of the tropical plants may need protecting from frost although we seem to be having warmer & shorter winters these days,we sometimes get frosts by being inland by 40 kilometres. I noticed what you said about protecting the tree ferns in the winter, in my area it's the other way around as the hot summer sun has killed the tree ferns my dad brought down from his dads place & planted, they are a rainforest plant which needs shade. As far as growing that Taro goes,I can order the seeds from overseas but I would never order the plants or tubers from even another state let alone another country due to strict quarantine laws. Someone tried to import some plants in from Thailand in Australia & customs found that coffee borer beetles were living in the plants,they would be devastating to local coffee bean growers in Australia.

You’re jungle paradise garden is just beautiful and amazing, very very well done. I particularly love hardy palm trees, the Jubaea Chilensis Chilian Wine Palm is fantastic. Could you please recommend a particular Palm specials who could offer fist class Wine Palms, in a large size, at a reasonable price.

I think I already know the answer because it is not included in your video...but they are everywhere in Cornwall. Anywho, in your opinion, what is more hardy- Jubaea Chilensis or Cordyline Australis?

@YorkshireKRIS

Roughly the same to be honest. Cordylines have the advantage that they can regrow from the ground if top growth is killed.
