Maybe the peat? I can see where mild mist, the ocean current, n mild winters would allow the plant growth too, but they are a high latitude. <br />Cape Cod used to have milder winter temps until the past decade.

Of course here in the Seattle area some of us think we can get away with growing tropicals, until a sudden cold snap wipes them all out. I have not succumbed to growing banana trees yet, but many gardeners here do. Of course they have to Linda Reederhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07665601809156707572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30939606.post-53939982191204458892014-10-02T19:07:26.964-05:002014-10-02T19:07:26.964-05:00it is very eden like...how beautiful...and cool th...it is very eden like...how beautiful...and cool they can have such a range as well....Brian Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722940075884718007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30939606.post-60893566637511375852014-10-02T14:13:52.962-05:002014-10-02T14:13:52.962-05:00Interesting!

We have similar growing conditions here as Ireland and the plants and trees grow exponentially compared to the Midwest.
