GORGEOUS! I'm curious what you do for animal/pest control. I love my indoor plants, and my home is a jungle inside, but everything I plant outside gets eaten by deer, bunnies and bugs. Are you blessed with a sterile outdoor growing environment, or do you have secrets to share?

NO secrets . I try to grow plants that encourage birds ,to eat pests from trees and plants .
Believe me I do get pests but they come in cycles, what the birds miss there are always other good insects to keep the bad ones in order.I do get plants with damage but its short lived .
Nothing's perfect. I have plents of other native animals that like the odd pests.
I have 76 species of bird life on my rainforest block.

It is lovely to hear that you have 76 species of birds in your rainforest block! You must be doing a lot of birdwatching!
