Robin Dunlavy, co-owner of Garden Girls, keeps the roughly 10x20-foot area in her own home's front yard brimming with plants of every shape and type.

After 10 years of working on her own in landscape gardening she has acquired many cuttings. These cuttings have since developed deep roots in her garden.

Her favorite plant is the agave closest to the driveway, which she acquired soon after starting Garden Girls. Phlox, purple asters, peruvian lilies, yucca, ginger, chamomile and many more greet visitors to this Fruitvale home.
