fall and winter gardening in san francisco

Hi, I just moved to a place in san francisco in the marina. The place has a backyard, there is already some fushias and hydrangeas growing there, and I'm not sure if my identification is correct, but I think I see some calla lilies (or some kind of lily) sprouting from the soil. There are other plants, but I do not know their names. The backyard looks like it hasn't been worked on in awhile. There are also two abandoned wooden boxes that look good for maybe an herb garden?

Anyways, I've never had the chance to garden, though I have always wanted to. Now that I have a place to do it(maybe), I would like to try...though I am very novice.

The problem is, I only have this place until the end of May.

So, I would like to know if it is possible to garden during the fall and winter. I know San Francisco has very minimal, if even any frosts, so I thought maybe this would be possible.

I have some seeds that I have collected from the CA native nursery I worked at, but I'm more interested in taking cuttings and rooting those, because it is faster.

Are there any suggestions or tips anyone can reccomend?
