Today was the Kula Maui version of the Upcountry Realtor Caravan. It was such a beautiful day and the properties were quite varied. One of the Kula homes for sale had a fantastic garden that was just like a manicured park! I got some nice plant shots, as you can see here. The climate in Kula is so perfect, and the soil is rich, making for wonderful growing conditions. Do you have a green thumb?
There's some more, but I posted them on FaceBook and you can see them if you log in...

Georgina,
You have such a variety of plants on Maui for such a relatively small land mass. Great pictures, thanks.
Georgia, I'm going to be there between December 16th and January 6th. Seeing your photos is making me even more excited than I was before.
Thanks for the quick comments! Maui has many different climates and microclimates - almost everything but arctic!
Patricia - there's a Maui Tweetup on the 19th I think. Let me know if you're interested.
Georgina, great photos! Maui is such a beautiful Island!
I love your pictures. You should join the ActiveRain Nature Station and post them there, too.
I saw Melissa's comment (#1), but I think she must spend too much time Playing in the Rain and should get out more. We have lots and lots of pampas grass, aloes, and agave here.
Right now is a great time to go to the San Diego Zoo to see all of their aloes blooming:
The agave attenuata has always been one of my favorite plants since I first saw it bloom back in 1978 at my uncle's place up in Los Angeles. Here is one of mine currently blooming:
Pampas grass is considered an invasive, non-native species here so I've removed all mine that I used to have and replaced them with agave attenuatas.
WE never have that kind of foliage... Very nice... I would have to visit in the coldest season if i ever go or I would not enjoy the stay... Too HOT for me...
Georgina - what beautiful photographs and garden. I love the foliage and different type of plants.
Wow! Beautiful shots, Georgina! I lived in Hawaii a long time ago as a kid. Such a beautiful place....

Georgina, Wow, these are gorgeous! I've seen everything dead here for so long it's lovely to see lush green gardens and some color!
Russel you really know your plants!
Thanks everyone - have a great weekend.
Nice photo. Looks like it is nice and warm and we are freezing our b....off over here in Texas. Suppose to be 25 in the morning.
Georgina, what beautiful photos, today it's raining so I really appreciate looking at the all the spectacular colors. Have a great day Barbara
Looks like a great view from that little bench, I have a green thumb...but cactus don't require much attention!
I am getting ready to post some photos, I hope by Tuesday night about our new garden, it is time for planting season here and we do a lot of container plants to avoid some of the major bugs we get here!
Georgina - what fantastic plants! thank you for sharing these beautiful photos!
It looks like a slice of heaven, if we could all just have a piece.
