Cypress Garden Nursery landscape history page in progress

Working on the Cypress Garden Nursery history page for my cousins nursery. It has a rich history that my Auntie Mollie and Uncle Yukio started 52 years ago. My uncle still propagates plants that the nursery sells and Ray uses in his landscape projects. Family owned and operated, it is one of the last locally owned nursery's in the Monterey Bay in Monterey. Updated the original flower logo design my Aunt had for the nursery and put signage on the landscape trucks which hadn't had signage for 10 years.
