The front garden is centered around a dry creek bed that disguises a swale. Poppies are the highlight of the spring garden with bulbs, irises and hollyhocks peeking up to show their colors. As you move through the gate, there are fairy gardens. Nestled in on both sides of the path are different scenes in pots, saucers and buckets. The backyard is a wonderland for butterflies, dragonflies, birds, lizards, and the occasional bunny. Each flower bed also showcases a fruit tree or two from citrus to apples, avocados to sapote, and cherimoya to mango. Fruit is available nearly year-round. Bits of whimsy are found throughout the garden. There is a chessboard in the back and tic-tac-toe boards scattered around the flower beds. Also, be on the lookout for a colony of rabbits, an army of frogs, and a gaggle of ducks.
