My friend and I went on a fabulous garden tour this weekend put on by the Theodore Payne Foundation which supports native California plants. The highlights were the absolutely stunningly beautiful garden at Walworth. I don't say that just because they are friends - they have put so much thought and love into their garden and it shows. Not to mention the adorable potting shed and guest house. Two green thumbs up! The other highlights of the day were in La Canada. was a great adobe house planted with native gardens front and back. The backyard has a great pool and cabana. Loved it. My absolute favorite house was the Lloyd Wright Jr. house in La Canada. Great lines to the house and looking out over a nice pool and grounds planted with native flowers and plants. Sigh.
