one of the most important elements for your tropical setting is the "vintage" attributes. to accomplish this, plant all you can and water profusely until you really think everything is looking great. then go to the SPCA and rescue two german shepards (preferably under two years of age). Love them lots and feed them well and make sure you leave them alone for a minimum of eight hours per day. Before long the vintage look will take over and you will find happiness in knowing that your shoes are safe...
