Cool. Wonder if Bangalow grow in the US. Not real familiar with that palm, but looks real nice.
I should have clarified that places in the Eastern US with an avg low of 37F wouldn't look like that, but places in the Southwest US do. They do much better in winter stability than the East. This place has an avg low of 36.8F in January:
Yeah they are quite commonly planted in Los Angeles & other warmer areas, also the look-a-like Archontophoenix alexandrae, the King palm, which has become naturalised around Hilo on Hawaii...
Yeah Camden is obviously very stable, with a record low of just -6C, so I'd imagine the minimums never stray too far below the average...
When I lived in Australia, I would often drive to/from work through Toowoomba, and felt that the vegetation didn't feel very Australian at all, more European (even though Toowoomba's average low in the coldest month is 44f)... https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@-27.5...8i6656!6m1!1e1

Are you talking about its deciduous trees in some of its roads?

Your vegetation in winter does not look like around here where I live. I have seen pics from London area in winter and as I have said it is more green than here. As far as being deciduous heavy, that is what the people want most likely. Who knows, may be if more people in that area of England planted more palms and evergreens it would look more like Camden, AU vs the eastern US.

England is Really impressive for its latitude,they can grow even some Palms !
Here in South America at 52S you even can dream with that,the vegetation at this Latitude in Patagonia is heavy Deciduous.

They only have one,native from Tasmania Highlands:

The Magellanic subpolar forest has some broadleaf evergreens like Drimys winteri and I'm fairly sure Trachycarpus fortunei can be grown in Punta Arenas in a sheltered area.

Thoses Evergreens in Magellanic Forest are more restricted to the Milder Coastal Western Areas,While the Drier,Colder Eastern Part of the Forest are 90% Deciduous.

Yeah, it was full of oak, plane and pine trees, with the usual eucalyptus. Ignoring the architecture, it almost felt like an English town.
