Established in 1959, covers two and one half acres of the upper sloes of Boat Canyon in Laguna Beach. The Garden demonstrates the range of plants that can be grown in Southern California coastal zones. It provides a source of visual information and inspiration for visitors planning their own gardens. The use of fertilizers and chemical controls has been limited in the Garden, so as to encourage a diversity of plant and wildlife species. The house, a classic 50s modern design, was completed in 1959. The Garden has evolved from that time into a world famous natural treasure. The entrance court to the house is a beautiful sight particularly in the spring when the lilac blooms of large Japanese Wisteria dominate the brick wall. The spreading structure of the house and its wing walls divide much of the remaining area into small, intimate and distinct gardens. Guided Tours: Hours - Tuesday - Saturday, 9:45am - Noon by reservation. Duration: Approximately 2 hours. Cost: Free (donations are appreciated). Reservations: 949.497.0716 |
