Gardens by the Sea, another nursery visit

Why not wrap up a nursery heavy blogging week with a visit to Gardens by the Sea Nursery? This was a planned stop en route to the San Diego Botanical Garden, and to be honest I'm not sure where I heard of this place, but I'm happy I stopped!

This appeared to be a neighborhood regular, just chillin in the shade...

Don't you just love a densely packed nursery?

Especially when there are display gardens.

With lots of character!

I don't remember ever seeing bottle edging that allowed for a change of grade. I do like it...

The nursery had an air of "I'll just stop by on my way to the beach"...what a life!

They had all the good stuff!

Planted driftwood was new to me, but it makes a lot of sense when you're just blocks from the ocean.

This cinder-block wall was bigger and better than those I'd seen before.

Beefy square blocks really make a difference.

Of course there were blooming grevillea...

And in case you're wondering I did leave empty handed. Only a reflection of it being December and my not having a good way to get anything home. There were a dozen (or more) things I wanted!...
