(It\\u2019s been featured in Sunset magazine.) In\\xa0GREEN\\u2019S TREES, I talk with Brent\\xa0about his personal crusade to plant a variety of drought-tolerant trees along the streets of his Mid-City Heights neighborhood. He\\u2019s been doing it for nearly 20 years now and has planted about 2,000 trees, all at his own expense. Brent studied horticulture at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and, as a college student, designed the landscape at the Apple Farm, which is one of my favorite stops in SLO. Today, he\\u2019s a busy landscape designer with a long list of clients all over LA, including several celebs. If you\\u2019d like to give your outdoor space the star treatment then you should definitely get in touch with one of the most down-to-earth guys I know. BP'
