Pat Pizzo has helped create a beautiful display of native plants, and he is commended on his generosity and dedication in keeping them alive for the public to view and enjoy.
Sorry for mixing epilobium (CA fuchsia) and erigonum (buckwheat), but went with the flow. Desert Willow just leafing out: the Desert Olive is the yellow-green, small tree with leaves. :-) pppizzo
Just to the left of the Concha Ceanothus is rock rose, a non native plant, that I add for color early summer. It is Cistus 'Sunset', and It does stay evergreen, more or less, the whole year. In August, the leaves tend to dry out some; but the first rains bring the green back to the plant. It is a Mediterranean zone plant, but not a CA native. A good ground cover native plant, which I do have on the other side of the island, is Baccharis pilularis 'Twin Peaks' . Very nice ground cover.
That's two plants. One is Erigonum Theodore Payne, and the other is a non-native, Mediterranean plant, Cistus Sunset. They go well together. The Ceanothus there is Concha.

Love your video. I would love zones cause I live in So Calif. Why do the edges of my Yankee Point die off in the summer? I do get in the 90’s here

Excellent quality video. Thank you!
Great video! This gives people a chance to write names of their favorite plants without having to have a pencil and paper when they are walking.

How large does the Desert Olive get? Is it messy??
What's the beautiful two foot tall green groundcover to the left of the ceanothus at the beginning of the video?
