- Firefighters, including Isaiah Marin, maintain the garden.
-
- Station 74’s garden provides eye-popping red, white and blue beauty along a mostly industrial stretch of Foothill Blvd.

- Fire-wise foliage, such as California Lilac, fills the garden. A Chaparral native, this shrub maintains hydration even in high heat.
-
- Prostrate California Sagebrush also holds its hydration well, retains the delicate slope, and covers ground that might otherwise be vulnerable to flammable invasive grasses.
-
- A native oak tree at the far end of the garden cools the space and can also “catch” embers before they reach structures.
