Our front yard garden on New Year's Day

These are pictures of our garden, as of New Year's Day. Everything looks different now. The grapevines are coming back, and the oranges have finished their season. Our artichoke, sadly, got trampled and didn't really survive the pollution of the large Station fire.

Our baby artichoke plant. Unfortunately this year it died due to trampling.

Neatly trimmed coniferous hedges alongside a garden bed with flowering plants.

This is our driveway. It's pretty long.

Row of neatly trimmed conifer trees with colorful flowering plants in front.

Fir trees and pretty flowers. I'm not sure what those flowers are called.

Cactus plant with green leaves and red fruit.

Our prickly pear cactus plant. You can eat them and make juice from them. We would if we could figure out how to do it without getting stuck with millions of needles.

Lush green foliage of a plant with elongated leaves.

These bloom into really pretty flowers and you can see them all over Los Angeles.

Lemon tree with ripe and unripe fruit among green leaves.

I think this is the grapefruit tree, but I don't really remember.

This is definitely the grapefruit tree.

Mature tree with large green leaves and clusters of small flowers.

This is the loquat tree. It's now fully in bloom and we can't pick it fast enough.

Bare tree in a garden surrounded by a circular stone border.

I have no idea what this tree is. It hasn't sprouted leaves for a few years but our parents keep saying it isn't dead. So we keep watering.

Barren tree branches in front of neatly trimmed shrubs.

This is our fig tree. There are way more leaves on it now.

This is a plum tree. We keep the CDs on there to distract the birds away so they'll quit stealing our fruit.
