Description
From San Marcos Record: Yard of the Month – The spacious yard at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Conway has been awarded the Yard of the month plaque for the month of January. Mrs. Conway stands on the front porch of her attractive home which is bordered in front by viburnum, hypericum, pyracantha, and nandina. The most unique thing about the yard is the large number of persimmon and Spanish oak trees in the front yard. Banana Trees are planted near the garage while the chimney makes a pretty background for a large pyracantha. Poinsettias were in bloom during Christmas season. Camellia bushes and a loquat tree are located near the east side of the house. In the back yard are chrysanthemums, roses, cannas, crepe myrtles, and hollyhocks. The yard covers more than one half acres, The beauty of it is hard to put into words. It can best be appreciated by seeing it.
