Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden
Hummingbird & Silvia Spathacea 'Powerline Pink'
The Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden is a botanical garden in Claremont, California, in the United States, just south of the San Gabriel foothills. The garden, at 86 acres (35 ha), is a non-profit organization dedicated to California native plants. The facility was open to the public with free admission for 58 years; in 2009 an admission fee was implemented.
The garden originated in 1927 when Susanna Bixby Bryant established a native garden on her rancho in Orange County. The garden relocated to Claremont in 1951. The garden now contains some 70,000 native Californian plants, representing 2,000 native species, hybrids and cultivars.
The garden has an active research department, specializing in systematic botany and floristics. The combined herbarium of the garden and neighboring Pomona College holds over 1,200,000 specimens. The journal Aliso is published by the organization semiannually. The garden offers graduate degrees in botany through Claremont Graduate University. <Wikipedia>

아래 할머니가 이 나무가 쓸어졌던 때를 얘기해주신다.
그리고 여기 올 때 마다 같은 날이 없이 다르게 보인단다. Ditto!!!
이른 아침에 나무 밑에 있는 벤츠를 반들반들하게 닦아주시는 할머니.
친구랑 같이 Volunteer로 나오시는데 오늘은 친구가 아파서 혼자 일을 하신단다.
나에게 자기집 뜰에 찾아오는 독수리와 이곳의 새들 그리고 보이는 노랑꽃을 얘기해주시더니
이 식물원 membership을 가지라고 권해서 나오는 길에 1년 걸 사고 나왔다.
