• "We've already been to Jungle Music twice and have purchased many palms, but there is still so much we don't know about palms.  We are developing an interest in cycads also.  We really enjoy Jungle Music and the staff!"  A.C & R.C., Yorba Linda, California

• "Dear Phil, Thanks for shipping my order for the palms I wanted to add to my collection in such an excellent manner.  The plants arrived today at my office and unless you were told they came all the way from California to Kansas you would think they were grown right here in the midwest, an indication of how well your staff packages the plants for shipment.  As you know my taste runs toward the more exotic and tropical specimens and the ones you have provided me are flourishing, a testimony to the quality conditions where they were propagated and nurtured.  I look forward to ordering others in the future."  J.M.  D.D.S., Topeka, Kansas

•  "Phil-keep up the great work.  You and Jesse are doing a fantastic job of keeping an extensive inventory of the rarest palms and cycads along with the more common species that beginning collectors and landscapers are looking for.  I appreciate being able to send friends by your nursery and knowing that they will be well taken care of and impressed with the quality and selection."  H.H., Houston, Texas

•  "Jesse, hello!! My wife, daughter and myself dropped by this past weekend, and I just want to thank you again for your great service.  I am going to start terracing my hillside, in which I call my backyard, to make room for more trees!!   I'll be back to see you in a few weeks to pick-up another load, maybe even the weekend of the upcoming open house.  Thanks again for making my dream a reality!!"  R.B., Corona, California 

•  "Thank-you for a great web site.  I read with interest your article on planting"  W.S.J., Lakeside, CA.

•  "This is the best selection of palms and cycads I have ever seen!   It's like being in a candy store!  I'm going to bring a truck next time."   C.R.N., San Diego, CA

•  "Thanks for the tip on the article. By the way, the plants look great! Tell
  Jesse he did a great job with the packing - everything was in perfect
  shape."   LB, Austin, TX

•  "You have an AMAZING selection of palms. I cant wait to come down." J.Y., Santa Barbara, CA

• (During an Open House)  "your staff made us all feel welcome, and invited us over to share in the spread ... I heard from others that took the time to wander through Jungle Music that they really enjoyed the double-header -- our meeting at The Monarch Program, and your Open House at Jungle Music!  So a quick but heartfelt THANK YOU to you and Jungle Music - you make the word "community" come to life.

  D.H., Encinitas, CA

  "It was a wonderful experience to be in your nursery last Saturday. Never

  seen so many palms and cycads in one place. It was an aha moment for me.

  I really wished i had the money to buy everything - kind of went crazy

  seeing all the plants."
  Joseph, CA

   

   

• Phil,
  "I just received my nine or so boxes of palms!  Wow!  They all arrived in superior condition.  You exceeded my expectations in the quality you sent, especially with the kentias!....  Thanks again, and once I find a more space to shoe horn some more unusual specimens in to my landscape or in planters, you will be hearing from me."
  T.T., Houston, TX
