General:
Located on two plus acres in a historic district which is both on the local and the National Register of Historic Places in San Antonio, Texas, Monte Vista Garden is in many respects a tribute to the past.The genteel Southern character home, with its graceful garden design, is in the neighborhood in which the current owners spent their childhoods. It was renewed in 1999 to echo and highlight the region, culture and personal tastes that influence the site.Through the use of terracing, low stone retaining walls, and concentrations of trees and plants in rectilinear beds, the area was divided into five gracious and well-defined rectangular gardens.
The front garden greets people with a variety of naturally occurring oak, laurel and elm trees of native species scattered throughout the large rectangular front lawn that is screened from the street by a wall of local limestone. Beds of redbud, nandina and liriope have been planted near the front entrance while large Italian jardinieĢ€res planted with annuals stand on either side of the front door. On the home's east side is a screened veranda opening onto a long walkway bordered by groupings of plants massed together to create splashes of color and texture. A runnel that separates two of the gardens, begins at a gently splashing fountain at the back of the house then travels across Texas limestone the width of the garden to a rectangular pond. It expresses the precious, subtle qualities of water in the arid South Texas landscape and provides a welcome and peaceful respite from the sunny, hot climate. On the west side of the house loquat trees line the property and provide a shady intimate area containing a fountain constructed from an antique terracotta jar.
The long garden at the back of the house is a symmetrical grove of honey locusts as well as loquats and elephant ears. A limestone retaining wall creates a division between the gardens. An arbor has been constructed at the end of the Long garden providing a convenient place to park with a crushed Texas granite path leading to the house. A brick path leads from the Long garden to the pool garden completed in 2008. A bathhouse rehabilitated from an older limestone structure, greenhouse and working zone for garden prep and storage were added here along with a limestone-edged salt water swimming pool bordered by antique oil jars containing ferns, irises and agapanthus. Also added to the new pool garden was an adjacent terrace and rustic columned pergola.
The owners note that the garden is a work in progress and plan to further reduce turf in the future to support water conservation.
Persons associated with the garden include: R.L. White (former owner, 1916-1956), John Bitter (former owner, 1956-1999), Reed Hilderbrand Associates (landscape architects, 1999-present), Lake/Flato (main house renovation architect, 1999), Don B. McDonald (outbuildings renovation architect, 2000).

Scope and Contents:
The folder includes a worksheet, garden and site plans, three photocopies of perspective sketches of the garden, and three photocopies of newspaper articles about the garden.
General:
This 4.5-acre garden site dates to 1935, and for more than 50 years was the home of the late Senator Tomas G. Pollard and his wife, Edna. Tom Pollard served as a member of the Texas State Legislature and was one of East Texas's most influential citizens. Designated as a Tyler Historic Landmark in 1998, Ravenwood represents possibly the largest private, secured, and continuing garden in the Tyler, Texas, area. From their inception in the mid-1930s, the gardens have highlighted the Georgian Colonial style home, which in turn is highlighted by majestic columns. The result is a series of six gardens, correlated into an overall garden whose beauty may be viewed from any point in the two-story home, aided by the use of different ground levels and walls of varied heights. Each of the areas is complemented with the same type of landscape architecture, beginning with the large trees--including crape myrtle, dogwood, pecan, and live oak--sculptured to give a cathedral effect. Approximately 1,500 azaleas serve as the major lower plants and provide a showcase of rich pink and white color each spring. Varieties include 'Pride of Mobile', 'Hinode-giri', 'Pink Elegans', 'Snow White', and 'Formosa'. Additional focal points of the gardens include its cleyeras and other shrubs, magnificent flower beds with seasonal color, the estate's gated entrance and circular drive, small garden houses, fountains, reflecting pools, statuary, and sundials. Of special note is the fountain in front of the main entrance, carved of Italian stone and ordered from the Erkins Studios of New York. Throughout the years--from different times of day to different seasons--Ravenwood's gardens have stood the test of time and brought delight to countless visitors.
Persons associated with the property include: Tomas G. and Edna Pollard (former owners, 1935-1987); Robert Tracy and Damon Leard (former owners, 1987-1993); Shirley Simons (architect, 1930s); Maurice Shamburger (landscape architect, 1930s); Gerald T. Shamburger (landscape architect, 1960s); Fritz von Osthoff (architect and landscape designer, 1987-1989); and Selena Short (landscape designer and horticulturist, 1990s).

General:
Royal Oaks represents one of the premier gardens of Tyler, Texas, dating to the mid-1930s - the unique era of the oil-drilling boom in eastern Texas. The gardens are located in Tyler's historic azalea district, adding to their heritage and community preservation status. From azaleas to dogwoods to a historic Black Gum, the elements are a community treasure.
Major plantings include Live Oaks, Magnolias, Dogwoods, Japanese Bloodgood Maple and Crepe Myrtles. Flowering plants include Camellias, Azaleas, Hydrangeas, Wisteria and Forsythia. St. Augustine grass, Mondo grass, native Yupons and other greenery complete the tableau.
Special features include the herb garden with Bay Tree topiary and sculptures of a little boy playing the flute, a metal heron and distinctive bird bath. The badminton courts were added in 1939, thus generating a Badminton Club that exists to this day. The original gazebo was hand-carried by eight men, relocating it when the swimming pool addition was under way. The gazebo is now draped and serves as a bathhouse in summer. The original barn, which housed Shetland ponies for many years, still stands. Visiting dignitaries have included J. Edgar Hoover, Dwight Eisenhower and Ronald Reagan.
Persons associated with the garden include Mr. and Mrs. B. G. Byars (former owners, mid-1930s-1979); Noel Pullam (landscape architect, 1970s); Lambert's (landscape designer, 1930s); Arabella Gardens (landscape features, 1990s- ); Breedlove Nursery (landscape features, 1950s).
