Two Gardens

I had a field trip today to two gardens in the Berkeley hills. The first few pictures are from the Fleming garden which you can read about here (under publications on the left there is an adobe version of an article about the garden in Pacific Horticulture). All native. All gorgeous. Simply awesome. The second garden was just down the street. Though not quite as eloquent, it was still really cool. Much bigger with neat exotics, a beautiful swath of Hyacinth, the biggest Garrya elipticas any of us had seen, really nice Irises and a little creek. HOW FUN!
