  • Meet effervescent Velia Sanchez-Ruiz who designed and maintains a front yard garden complete with a colorful meditative nicho arbor. Every month of the year, neighbors stroll through to gather serenity and wonder, along with handfuls of fresh herbs and flowers. Not only only does Velia teach young and old about the wildlife that visits, she also passes along of knowledge of Mexican herbal remedies for health and good taste. First inspired by daylilies, she continued digging out grass to layer native perennials, annuals, and even vegetables alongside them.

    Trees are living homes for birds and squirrels. Trees also provide oxygen for our lungs. Indeed, trees are the lungs of our beautiful Earth. Gorgeous garden!

    Wow! Love this lady and her inspirational outlook on plants as medicine, for our bodies & souls
    Love her garden, looks so cozy, full and natural. Wish she lived closer and was my tia (aunt) or godmother or something. Very cool!

      I always come back to her garden. She inspired me to turn my front and side yards into gardens. I'm composting with manure from the area horse stables. And leaves from my yard and neighbors. I am not using any pesticides. I see other forms of life on the land scape also. Thank you for your inspiration 🥰

    Wonderful garden!! The plants need all the compost they can get to even come close to their vibrant caretaker. I'm sure she inspires them. And a feminist too!! Thanks for the tour.

    Recommendations for plants and flowers that thrive in SA?

      We can grow pretty much the same things. SA Garden Style, run by SAWS, has great info and rebates on plants.
