The gardeners emphasize year-round flowers, and year-round food production. The small, attractive beds are perfect for small, city gardens.
I didn't get pictures, but they also grow several apple trees, a big kiwi vine, and some lemons.

Garden for the Environment
I'm always happy to visit this garden at 7th Avenue at Lawton, and we've come here on the blog together many times. This place demonstrates what a productive, water-wise, and ecologically friendly San Francisco garden can be...given sufficient sun. Even situated in the fog belt, as this garden most certainly is, on a corner lot without any tall buildings, a home gardener would be blessed to have this much sun anywhere in San Francisco.

I really like that entry gate and garden, and the blue-flowering tree is stunning.
Wonderful pics. What is that lovely tree in the second pic. I've never seen one like that.
Wow, there's so much going on! I bet their insect problems are few and far between with all that biodiversity for "good bug" habitat!
