kelli, I love toyon...don't know if it would like it here, but grew a lot of it on the Fallbrook property, our long drive was lined with Toyon, Eucalyptus citriodora, and dodoneas. We were there long enough that it was re-establishing itself with seedlings popping up here and there. I walked the property constantly looking for seedlings and transplanting them to the back drive's border, interplanted with yucca to replace the dying myoporums. I really miss our property down there, but I'm pretty sure the woman who bought it has let everything die by now. At least all of the extremely drought tolerant plants will be surviving...she was / is not a gardener at all.
