Private Rose Garden
The owner of this property had lived there for 57 years when we planted this rose garden. He had owned a nursery for 20- years, hence the large collection of exotic palm trees. This property is only a short distance from one of the rivers which form the Sacramento Delta. It had a 2" water main and no meter, so the owner saw no reason not to have big Rainbird towers going 24/7 all Summer to support his exotic landscape. He couldn't understand why I insisted on using drip irrigation and watering only once/week.
