One Man's Garden in Tacoma

For years many have passed this house and marveled at the floral display at 3725 No. Vassault St. in Tacoma . Last year there was no display and we had wondered if the Asian man who owns this house was ill. This year the display was back in force and we stopped this past Sunday to photograph it. We went up to the owner and told him how much we had enjoyed his garden all these years and he invited us to tour his creation. We found the backyard to be as beautiful as the front. He is Vietnamese, shy, very soft spoken, and speaks very little English, so we couldn't discuss too much with him about the garden.  

                                I wonder if he takes the pots in at night to keep them from being stolen.

Here is the master gardener! I wish we could have communicated.

 Look at how precise the hanging pots are lined up.

Entrance to the backyard.

 And here is the backyard. WOW!

A hand shows the size. It is hard to believe this is one man's work
           and I believe he must work on it every day, all day long.
