CHRYSALIS GARDENS

Ann graduated with a B.Sc. majoring in landscape design from UCD, Ireland and left for California soon after. An internship at the historic Filoli Gardens in Redwood City followed and she knew she loved the Bay Area. She stayed and believes in preserving all the good things we have here - the open spaces, the wildlife, the native plants, our water. She thinks that a well designed garden will respect its locale, be beautiful and most important of all: have somewhere to sit down. Ann is QWEL (Qualified Water Efficient Landscaper) certified and has participated in focus groups to update the California State Licensing Board's exams for landscape contractors. She is also the secretary on the board of our local environmental organization, the Tri City Ecology Center.
