This was another fabulous garden, so many wandering paths and levels, I actually lost my Mom for a while! Lots of brick used everywhere.
This was at the entry way, one on each side.
The gate made from horseshoes.
Beautiful shaded paths in the lower garden
In one corner, a small embellished wall
A large brick wall, with wave pattern along the top divided one area from the other. Covered in creeping fig. The wall had bits of unusual embellishments as well, bottles and clay objects and a few quirky surprises.
There were three gates with words over them. The gate in the brick wall said "There". Another said "Here" and this one said "Everywhere".
Through the gate was this interesting collection of clay pipes & art work and the views toward San Francisco from here were fantastic although too hazy for a good shot.
Lots of paths led to various sitting areas.
My favorite spot was the patio right along the back of the house, wonderful bright plantings, a fountain and orange umbrella.
Next to that patio were stairs going up into the middle of the garden.
Which led to the pond,
I loved how the grasses popped up between the flagstones
The pond spills water under the walkway and down this channel to the waterfall that faces the umbrella sitting area.
