And he does show a fig tree. 
Enjoy... I did.


Very nice!!!

Its a rain forest. How do you think he keeps them from freezing

This guy is my new hero! That's awesome. Only thing missing are the geckos.

Very cool! Looks like a TON of work to winterize.

From the Youtube comments: 

do cut all these down in the winter and if not how do you winterize, lovely plants

+shukiesha thompson Yes, I cut them down & cover with wood chip mulch just before the first frost in the fall. Right now, I'm looking at a few more weeks:(

Impressive

Very impressive!

Wow what a great garden. Makes you feel you are in the land of the giants with all this huge plants.
Even sounds like a rainforest in the video.
Really impressing!

I'm betting the elephant ears are brought into cool storage after the first frost.  They grow like weeds.  I think I saw caster bean plants which will grow6-8 ft over a summer.  It looked like those cold tolerant bananas which could be winterized in the ground pretty far north.  Many of the elephant ears here in NC will winter over here and will put on that much growth in a season if you water, water water and feed feed feed.  He did a great job putting it together.
