Notes
  • See also HABS CA-2201 for related information.
  • Significance: On this site, from 1886 until his death in 1926, Burbank had the space, soil and climate to experiment with large plantings of fruit trees and vegetables, grapes, ornamental shrubs, bulbs, perennials and annuals. The property was comprised of ten acres at the time of purchase in 1885. Five acres were added in 1904, and 3.046 acres in 1906. In 1923 the 3.046 acres were sold. This survey documents all 18.046 acres. Of them, only three acres are north, west and south of the cottage. The surviving plants include trees, berries and ornamentals. And, some additions of original Burbank plants which were lost to the property have been made. That the cottage survives is also important to the historic value of the property.
