These are not my garden but the parking lot of the nearby St Georges Village Botanical Gardens on St Croix, USVI. I don't know what the tall plant with huge leaves is. A pretty Hibiscus variety. End of the season of the flambouyant blossoms but still magnificent. The Baobab fell over ten years ago and was 'stood up' and has easily doubled in size, the flowers are also not as fresh as last month. A lily-pond in an old 'copper' or sugar boiling vat.

@Allamanda I like the fuzzy bit.
I believe the first one is a type of fig, not very good to eat for people but the monkeys in Belize loved them.
