We inherited twenty-one historical Jacaranda trees, a remnant from the long long avenue of the very first exotic trees planted in Nairobi by the mission fathers who also grew the first coffee plantation in the country. One could walk through this bowery and come out on the other side of the house and continue along either an outer or an inner walk of curvaceous borders of trees, shrubs and flowers, until the bottom one came to a round garden in one corner, with its entrance.
