Vulcan Street


Climbing Vulcan Street and inspecting its gardens with Mark and Tim.

This city is reeking with rosemary, lavender, eucalyptus, various salvias, jasmine, santolina, artemesia and fennel, all needing no special attention. The fig trees! The many colored lantanas! The agapanthus!

Sounds great...with the exception of the agapanthus. We true Californians hate, hate, hate agapanthus. I know we shouldn't "hate" but aganpanthus are common, boring, filler plants in CA landscapes.

we look like we're walking through Wonderland...and in fact we were!

What a pleasure it was to stop and smell the roses and the rosemary with you both!
