This Part 2 video enters the succulent garden and explores the adobe house built in 1939 (on land that was bought for $600 in 1938!) I was amazed at the landscape design of this area using palm, succulents, colorful rocks, earthenware and much more. This "succulent mosaic bed" covers 1200 sq. ft., and was designed by Matt Maggio in 2005-2006 while a horticulture student at California Polytechnic State University (San Luis Obispo).

You will notice the mosaic pattern that resembles a river or water flowing in some of the photos. I also like the idea of succulents used on the water fountain and between stairwell steps!
