Catalina went from a boring, thirsty, high maintenance lawn to a succulent, pollinator meadow in less than a year's time. The large corner lot in Berkeley's Solano Avenue shopping district attracts butterflies, bees, hummingbirds, and humans. The plant palette is a solid combination of drought- and deer-tolerant species providing year-round color and intrigue.
