Ode to the Garden at 1443 Josephine Street

It is with much sadness that I leave this small but lovely garden. I have tried to create a garden packed with flowers that delights the passerby as well as my family. The flowers invite butterflies, honeybees and hummingbirds, and these pollinators animate the plants with their activity. I have included a diagram of the plants that I have planted and identified in the garden and also a spreadsheet with the names and their locations. We have also included a diagram of the automatic watering system. The watering system takes care of almost all the watering needs of the garden except in very warm weather, which is rare in Berkeley.

More information of this wonderful home and magical garden at http://1443josephine.com


Details and diagrams of the garden’s landscaping & automatic irrigation system are included!

Recently refinished floors, custom verdigris copper glaze finishes by renowned artist Cher Cultrona in living/dining rooms. Great storage below
