Tropical Plants in Containers and Raised Beds


Love the mix of bromeliads with other tropicals in these container plantings at Busch Gardens Tampa, where the grounds are in colorful full bloom.  Spring!!!


The topiaries are gorgeous mixed in the tropical plant beds!


Love the statues mixed in the landscaping!
