WHAT’S IN YOUR HABITAT?
The Manhattan Beach Botanical Garden is laid out in overlapping
habitats loosely based on those found in Southern California wildlands.
Each is defined by a plant community that:
-
Supports specific birds, insects, and other wildlife
-
Has its own unique sun, soil, slope and water requirements
-
Provides food, water, shelter and a place for wildlife to raise young
Learn more about the garden's plant and wildlife-rich habitats by clicking the photos below. "Rewild" your yard using elements of each which can be mimicked in the home garden.
