After we built our swimming pool, there was nowhere to escape the heat, only in the water, but even here you needed to get out of the sunshine for a while, so we built a Pagola, and filled it with chairs and a table so we could sit and sip in the shade after a refreshing dip.
It looked pretty bare to me, so I hung some Stag horn and Elk horn plants around to make the Pagola look pretty. These plants have now taken over, we have to duck and weave to get inside without banging our heads (it reminds me of the movie "The Day of the Triffids".
The plants just seem to adore the conditions here and are thriving, these photos are of two of the plants but there are many many more all in the same condition. My palm trees are also reaching for the sky and dropping seeds everywhere, they are really happy as well.
It all makes my back yard like my own private resort, I couldn't wish for a nicer yard !!
