Red Conebush .. The Wave Garden - A Sneak Peek





UNDER CONSTRUCTION...







The glory of South African plants .. bringing color to Bay Area gardens in Winter!

Here's a sneak peek of an amazing landscape created in the East Bay over the previous decade:
-- The Wave Garden --
filled with an incredible palette of plants and an exceptional hardscape.
Leucadendron salignum .. aka Summer Red Conebush is looking especially beautiful right now.

The garden takes in vistas of San Francisco Bay, Richmond Bridge, and Mt. Tamalpais in Marin County.
An in-depth feature on the Wave Garden appears on: Alice's Garden Travel Buzz.
To all my garden blogging amigos, Happy Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day!

  4. Hi Esther, Bom and Byddi!

    There's nothing quite like the color range of leucadendrons to knock your socks off. It's great that they're becoming popular choices in California gardens.
