Desert Horticultural Tour

Lainie, Allan and I headed to Palm Springs for the Desert Horticultural Tour last week-end.  Five homes opened up their gardens for us to tour...they represented the best of desert landscapes. 

Some very interesting plants...especially these fuzzy cacti.

And clever creations with rocks.

Loved this hillside...

This garden had an outside shower (which neighbors could watch you showering...maybe they kept their bathing suits on...but it is Palm Springs, you know.)

This garden wasn't even on the tour...we found some very interesting creatures here...can you imagine living across from this?  They were huge.

Some great desert ideas...so low maintenance.


This back yard garden was our favorite...very modern, beautiful pool, and great views.  I found that Allan truly loves modern architecture...after all these years.

I need a buddha in my back yard...oh, I've got Allan.


What a glorious day it was!
