In St. Lucia, both the properties we stayed at had beautiful trees in their gardens. Palm, banana, cashew, calibash, cacao, papaya, golden apple.
Lush lush lush.
If lived there I would definitely try to start a forest garden. Pots of snake plant and cactus on the terrace! Along the path to the front door, frangipani and jasmine for scent. And some bougainvillea and hibiscus for the hummingbirds!

We did get to Diamond Falls botanical garden, as well as the Tet Paul Nature Trail.
It seemed like exotic plants and flowers were at every turn.
Plants that would only survive indoors back in Canada, like Snake plant and Prayer plant, were naturalized in the hilly landscape. Unfortunately, so was invasive bamboo.
