Follow-up on Buddleia’s

Thanks to Jeremy for his comment on my last buddleia post. This Buddleia is absolutely amazing- when can we get it here?!

This is Buddleia ‘Bicolor’, a new two-toned flower in lavender and orange. Does anyone know where to get it locally? Here is where he found it, a British website. If we have any nursery professionals on here, please leave a comment and I’ll post it, or if anyone has seen it at a southern California nursery, please do the same.

Got a xeriscape plant you think we should all know about? Post a comment and I’ll highlight the plant.

Seeking: designer to share studio space

I have a goregous new studio space on 25th Street in Golden Hill in the 830MXD building. I am looking to share my 350 sq.ft. space with another designer. The rent will be $375 a month, furnished with a “L” shaped desk suitable for a workstation or drafting. The office has it’s own bathroom and kitchenette and a small balcony. It is available Dec 1.

If you don’t know the building, 830MXD is the brainchild of architects Mike Burnett and Craig Abinella. The mixed use building houses an architecture firm (theirs), a cafe and wine bar called Counterpoint (to open this month), an artist, a graphic designer, a non-profit, live-work spaces and a few apartments. It has recently received quite a bit of press as a key step in the redevelopment of the Golden Hill area.

Please give me a call at 619-618-6410 if you think you might be interested in the space!

Affordable modern fountain

From time to time, I like to highlight a product or reseller that I stumble across. In a recent search for an attractive small fountain for a mid-century modern project, I came across One Stop Modern. They have a reasonable selection of modern fountains, planter pots, and other small finds. Here is a link to their fountain collection.

All of their fountains have clean lines and are simple recirculating bubblers- just add water and a power source.
