Hey, if you're growing palm trees over there, you're doing pretty good.
If it's ok to clutter your place a bit, here's my jade screen of the back yard.
Not trying to one up, just wanted to show what is essentially native growth of jade here. It's head high in a couple of places. I also have a pelargonium hedge along one window row. It's looking a little ratty right now but when in full bloom, it's beautiful.
When I first moved to CA, i was kind of stunned at how things grow here. I don't have any impatiens but they grow volunteer here and get three feet tall. Ginger, bird of paradise, there's even this daisy shrub/tree, gets around 10-15' tall. after a while you get kind of blase because there's just so much but it really is an amazing place
