There was, for sure, a Musa sp - I could tell from the fruits - and this is probably another. Also lots od Monstera deliciosabut the more interesting and unusual plants were unlabelled. I am always rather disappointed in otherwise good gardens/houses/arboretums to find most of the specimens unlabelled. I suspect that most 'botanical' gardens are now staffed by volunteers or underpaid professional gardeners rather than botanists ... sad ....
