Working with a landscape designer, residents Bill Fanning, Claire Taylor and Gary Cooper created a small oasis that’s in full bloom with native California plants like lilacs and manzanitas. It’s also a refuge for the local birds and bees.

“The idea of a butterfly garden is attractive to a lot of people,” Taylor said in an interview with the Los Altos Town Crier. “I think it’s going to be popular.”
