Marc Vissers' Exotic Garden in Belgium

Trying to create a tropical, jungly look on a limited plot using a combination of hardier plants like bamboo & ferns and exotics such as palms and bananas. The small terrace is also filled with many plants in different shapes and colours, some of them raised by myself.
