A new garden comes together in Fair Oaks

By spring, this natural-looking landscape should be growing in. The plants are supposedly deer-resistant, although I say, “supposedly” because deer can’t read and don’t always know they’re not going to like something. Many of the plants are natives, so there should be more birds and butterflies adding life.

This is a borderline area, more visual (right now) than utilitarian. So, there’s just a small place for two people to sit, plus a boardwalk near a stream.
