Ron, Ryan & Martha Heiman

Come and see how an old tennis court was converted into 5 distinctive gardens. We are a Certified Wildlife Habitat home and an Official Monarch Butterfly Way Station. Gardens include: Italian, Drought-Tolerant, Grassy Amphitheater, Tropical, and Fruit Orchard—in all a relaxing place to visit and linger.

You’ll meet numerous whimsical characters such as Bella Boulder Belly peering out from a canopy in the Tropical Garden and Senor Rustio playing an accordion for you at the pool. Wander from front to back, you will see over 350 trees and countless plants from many parts of the world.

View our cycads from South Africa to the South Pacific, Fishtail Palms from Thailand, and many cacti native to the Southwest. It is something special when even the wildlife finds this a great place to visit; like our winged friends the cooper’s hawks, barn owls, generations of Anna’s hummingbirds and even a pair of pin-tailed whyduhs.

Great believers in recycling, the Heimans catch rainwater in barrels to water their gardens. The cement that once surrounded the tennis court has become planters and the asphalt from the court became a hill in the Tropical Garden. There will be a food truck on Saturday and Sunday for your convenience.
