As I entered through their massive front door, the very first thing that drew my at- tention was the spectac- ular view of the native scrub oaks, rolling hills and, there in the midst, an outstanding manza- nita just steps away from their deck. It was simply stunning, showing off it's mahogany colored, smooth bark and twisted shape. It is truly a sensa- tional focal point unlike any I have ever seen. I cannot tell you the countless hours I have spent trying to create a one of a kind garden in my yard. Now I have de- cided that nothing can top what Mother Na- ture does naturally – cer- tainly not me. If you should be lucky enough to have a Manza- nita in your yard, there are specific things that you need to know. They grow naturally in dry to semi dry Mediterranean climates such as Mexico, California and Arizona. Putting a drip system next to them would be detrimental. They need no watering other than an occasional hosing off. They are perfect for gar- deners who like to travel during the summer. Since they are ev- ergreen they provide year long interest. In the spring they produce small bell shaped flowers from white to pink. They attract bees, butterflies and hummingbirds. Sup- posedly you can gently squeeze a blossom and extract a drop of nec- tar which tastes just like honey. Last week I had Sandy Tuttle take this picture of her manzanita which surprised every- one by producing a sud- den flush of blooms after our recent rains. You can add additional color around these plants by combining ceanothus and/or monkey flower. These are local natives with similar habitats. Check with the Discov- ery Center for more in- formation. Normally after the blossoms drop small green berries appear. They mature into minia- ture red shaped apples. Manzanita is Spanish for "little apple". These edi- ble berries provide food for birds, foxes, rodents and other animals. I would like to take this time to thank my lovely hostesses Sandy Tuttle and Judy Fitzger- ald for inviting me to their wonderful new home and for enjoying the natural beauty be- yond their window.
