About
ea / ca is a garden studio founded by Ezra Arao. As a Certified Horticulturist and Landscape Designer, I bring an artistic lens and extensive, hands-on growing experience.
After relocating from New York, I fell in love with California’s native flora and Mediterranean climate. I blend formal botanical training with naturalistic pruning, irrigation maintenance, and Integrated Pest Management to craft and maintain thriving, climate-appropriate, resilient landscapes.
