Anyone in northern California next Saturday is very welcome to stop by and check out my garden. It will be one of four gardens featured on the Garden Conservancy's San Francisco East Bay open day, April 22.

They'll clip you for $7 but it's for a good cause. The GC is the largest organizer of garden tours to private gardens in the US. The money they raise goes to supporting a few larger gardens after they survive their makers. For example, in my area they support the Ruth Bancroft garden in Walnut Creek. Of course at 108 she may never actually pass away but I'm sure she is moving a little slower and can use the help.
This one is my garden. The name was made up impulsively and is a little regrettable.

If you do live near by or happen to be passing through, come see me. I'll probably hang out in the gazebo between answering questions. If you tell me your user name here I'll take you upstairs and make you an expresso or let the missus do it.
We've had so much rain this winter and spring, historic amounts actually. So most of the recent pics aren't in great light. But no worries, we're expecting clear skies and temperatures in the 70's this Saturday. Recent pics:
