The term "colonia," in Spanish means a community or neighborhood. In Texas the Office of the Secretary of State defines a "colonia" as a residential area along the Texas-Mexico border that may not have some or most of the basic living necessities. With that in mind, a colonia means that the citizens may not have things such as potable water and sewer systems, electricity, paved roads, and safe and sanitary housing. Today in Texas, over 1500 colonias in the counties along the Mexican border are home to about 400,000 people.

These splendid gardens are very formal and orderly, created for the environment of the user. They are very symmetrical and include all sorts of fascinating elements
