The Ruth Bancroft Garden

I first heard of this private garden located in the East Bay city of Walnut Creek a few years ago and always wanted to visit.  I finally did on July 10.  Here are two large agave inflorescence.

Thick-trunked palm framed by a eucalyptus.

One of the reasons I chose this time to visit the garden was that they were having their "sculpture in the garden" event.   This was one of my favorite sculptures.  It's called "Hand Maid"
