Montenido is one of those delightful little communities tucked away into a canyon off the road to Malibu. I put in a small summer garden for a client there today and had such a lovely time revisiting the "spent" winter garden I put in last Oct and getting all the new plants in for the next season. We are a two season gardening climate here. Montenido has its own slightly more chilly microclimate so one needs to be a tad careful about not putting in summer veg too soon.
When I was done I drove up the road to my dear friend Suze to see her lovely newly planted hillside. A grand mixture of CA and Australian native plants. The mountain backdrop to her house/garden and farm is stunning.
Note to self: When I earn a few more shillings I want to live in Montenido....
