Tropical gardening is a slow dance with nature. It is collaborative and nature plays the trickster. Things are in constant flux and they don’t always end up how you thought they would. A case in point is my gorgeous Brazilian Crista Galli. It was sold as a nice shrub for a corner, and it is now 25 metres high (8 and 10). #ashrubfortheGuinnessrecords #Bromeliads #tropicalgardens
