here in full bloom (magenta flowers) in the early spring. To the right of it is a
California Buckeye, one of the earliest shrubs to leaf out in the
spring. Behind these two small trees is a Valley Oak tree, just beginning
to produce leaves. To the left of the Valley Oak tree are two Gray (Foothill) Pine trees,

right and behind the Buckeye tree is an Interior Live Oak tree. An excellent shrub to
