Arvind’s Garden at Lake Cunningham Park

No one has to twist Arvind Kumar’s arm to get him to lead a tour of
the California Native Plant garden near the edge of Lake Cunningham


Information for volunteer gardeners and
interested passersby is prominently posted

 

A tiny native cottonwood tree will
one day be a giant providing welcome
shade to the shrubs and grasses below


In time, native shrubs such as these will naturalize and spread to fill the space.
Invading weeds need to be dug out to keep down the competition for water.
