Here is an excerpt from an article about Bracey and her husband's horticultural pursuits in the San Jose area:

"Love of gardening is partly about love of nurturance. Some gardeners nurture far more than their home landscapes; that's the case with Richard and Bracey Tiede."

"Update 2018: The Salvia community continues to grieve the loss of Bracey Tiede to a painful battle with cancer on February 15, 2018. Bracey was a major advocate for sustainable, drought resistant landscaping through her work with organizations such as the Master Gardeners of Santa Clara, the Mediterranean Garden Society, and San Jose's Guadalupe River Park."

Take some time to read the two links below that tell about this dedicated couple who planted and preserved sustainable plants to benefit all of us. Bracey's was a life well lived, but taken too soon from all who loved her.
