The front yard is pretty large...it has an 85ft tall Norfolk Island Pine (Araucaria heterophylla), a 50ft tall Jacaranda (Jacaranda mimosafolia) tree and a 35ft tall Southern Magnolia tree (Magnolia grandiflora)...and several other smaller trees and hundreds of palms.

Palms are my favorite trees. I used to be active in the International Palm Society for many years.

Yes, palms do remind me of Hawai'i.
