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 month you’ll hear from the candidates running for the HHA Board of Directors. Each will share why they’re running and what they hope to bring to the Heights. It’s the best chance to put names to faces before you vote\, so come with questions and get to know the people who want to help shape the neighborhood’s future. \n  \nWe’ll also welcome CarePartners\, a Houston nonprofit that has served older adults and caregivers since 1986. Their vision is “Creating Compassionate Communities of Care.” Through caregiver education\, one-on-one consultations\, support groups\, and activity programs\, they help older adults\, including people living with dementia\, and the family members who care for them. They also run the Dementia Day Center\, Houston’s only adult day program for people in the early to late-moderate stages of dementia. Whether you’re caring for a parent\, a spouse\, or a neighbor\, or just want to know what help is out there\, this presentation is worth hearing. General meetings are open to everyone\, so bring a friend.
