the front yard

So, the picket fence in the front yard has been done for a while. After that was finished we planted a salsa garden there for the tenants.

Cilantro makes a rather effective ornamental, except for the fact that it's an annual. The tomatoes and tomatillos and peppers seem to be doing well too.

And then more recently we also added some stepping stones. 

These stones are really cool, they're basically pieces of a sandstone that formed a stream bed, and they have fantastic colors and textures. We got them from a place called Bourget Brothers in Santa Monica, which has a fascinating collection of...rocks. Maybe someday we'll put some ground cover in there too.
