SOHO Begins Marston Gardens Landscape Survey
Spring has sprung in San Diego and so has work on a comprehensive survey of the historic Marston House grounds. SOHO's survey will document the hundreds of plants that make up the lush gardens and any physical features, including garden walls, outbuildings, and water features. Once fully assembled, the survey will offer a snapshot in time of the gardens' and grounds' current conditions and appearance. This survey is one piece of a larger project to create a full master plan for the Marston House Gardens. As an essential component of the master plan, it allows us to compare past and present using historic photographs, drawings, and plant inventories. This work will also help us determine which plants are indeed historic to the property, the time frame when they were planted, and how this significant landscape has changed over time.
