So I Started My Own Native Plant Garden…

Having gotten into this California native plants thing, and not on the heels of last week’s Cahuenga Library Fall Planting event, I decided to start a little native garden of my own this week…

I started with these three plants I bought at Matilija Nursery:

From left: Coffeeberry, Cleveland Sage and Hummingbird Sage.

Then I found a nice, empty, shaded area for the coffeeberry and hummingbird sage:

Flattened the ground, removed grass/weeds, planted them and added some mulch…

Next I found a home for the Cleveland sage, which gets some sun:

That wasn’t too hard now, was it?

Now watch ’em grow!
