Holiday flair: how we deck our own halls
Sunset, Dec, 2004
Visitors who tour the gardens at our Menlo Park, California, campus get a little bonus this time of year: our holiday decorations and 12-foot-tall Christmas tree. Every year you'll find bountiful wreaths on the doors, greens and flowers gracing the halls, and white lights in the olive trees that front our two buildings. For our lobby, head gardener Rick La-Frentz chooses the prettiest noble fir from a local nursery, and it's soon festooned with a mix of ornaments, both purchased and lovingly handmade by staff over the many years. If you're in the area, stop by for ideas you can use to decorate your own home.
