Slopes.  They’re a fact of life in many San Diego gardens.  And judging from many of our viewer e-mails, a lot of you are stumped when it comes to landscaping them.  Tom and crew visit the College Area to give you some answers as they renovate a 1960s front garden.  And we take you back to the nursery to show you how to create beautiful bonsai trees from common nursery plants.  Also, bare root roses and fruit trees are about to be delivered to your local nurseries.  Find out why they’re such a bargain.

Lists of plants Tom mentioned:
