This secluded private garden is divided into visually distinct microclimate sections. California native Poppy, Seaside Daisy and Douglas Iris mix happily with Geraniums, Heucheras and Morning Glory in the center of the garden, flanked by several varieties of Camellia and Azalea shrubs. A showy Japanese Aralia, Bear’s Breech, Fuchsia and a fragrant Honeysuckle adorn the shady part of the garden. There is a collection of ferns under the Red-Leaf Japanese Maple, and a vibrant selection of more Hummingbird and pollinator favorites such as Sage, Lavender, Hebe, CA native Ceanothus and Sticky Monkey Flower, on the warm sunny side of the garden.
