Bob and Cynthia Card have lived here for 25 years\, the garden evolving along with the house’s interior. The cottage garden now envelopes both the 1893 bungalow and artist studio in the back. This mix of flowering plants and herbs attracts a steady stream of pollinators to the garden enhancing the historic feel of the neighborhood. Cynthia treats her plants with tough love and says that if a plant needs special attention\, it is on its own. Notable ‘tough’ plants are Esperanza\, Duranta (Sweet Memory)\, various mallows\, Esperanza\, Lantana\, A Blue Butterfly Clerodendrum\, a bay tree\, Mexican Mint Marigold\, Rosemary\, and Vinca that have re-seeded themselves freely amongst the other plants. There is also a large Roselle Hibiscus\, from which they make tea. A few years ago\, the Cards bought the small bungalow next door offering it as a visiting artist residence and also for art exhibits. The fence between them was removed and the garden expanded. Old bricks\, collected from the neighborhood\, make vintage paths throughout the garden. The Cards have also installed several rain barrels that collect water for the garden. \nParking may be challenging as the streets are narrow\, but parking on the side streets and a short walk will give you an opportunity to observe the historic neighborhood and all the original houses still on this block. The houses are very close together which seems to have brought the neighbors closer together as well. \nWe would like to thank Wabash Feed & Garden for the nice gift card awarded to our October Garden Tour recipients. \nWabash Feed & Garden 4537 N.

This garden has been featured in more than one Garden Conservancy tour and was recently included in Pam Penick’s book ‘Gardens of Texas’. \nFrom the street\, the house is almost invisible\, camouflaged with mature trees with a thick\, shade-loving native understory. A row of river birches in the side yard lead back to a shady and secluded courtyard containing a large pond\, a water retention trough\, and a horseherb lawn surrounded on three sides by covered porches. In the pond\, water is filtered through a planter of aquatic plants which is also a fountain adding the soothing sound of falling water to this secluded getaway. \nThe landscape has been carefully planned for resiliency\, water retention\, shade\, and privacy all on a normal-sized Heights lot. \nWe want to thank New Roots Landscaping Nursery & Antiques for the nice gift card awarded to our September garden tour recipient.
