April 2024 Yard of the Month

536 W. 17 th St.

Anita Barnes garden at 536 W 17 th St is the culmination of over 30 years of trial-and-error
gardening in Houston. She loves flowers. Many are changed seasonally and many come
back every year. She tries to time the plantings so there is always something blooming.
Over the years she has become less experimental and sticks with the tried and true.
She has landscaped the yard with curved pathways and multi-sized concrete circles that
incorporate several pebble mosaics. She also displays many of her outside totem
sculptures as well as a few pieces from other artists. Her goal is to have a large variety of
colorful flowers to enjoy all year round.

We want to thank Another Place in Time for the very nice gift card awarded to Anita for
being our April Yard of the Month. 421 W. 11 th St. 713-864-9717
