Last Sunday was the Pacific Palisades annual garden club tour. My first time on this tour was 9 years ago and it continues to be an inspiring tour. Below, are a couple of my favorites, both designed by Jay Griffith.
A Brentwood Garden

A creative way to camouflage the post supporting the coral tree
A seating area next to the pool with a terracotta Chinese warrior standing guard
A succulent planted in place of a missing brick on the patio
The view looking back towards the main house
Another seating area off the main patio
A Pacific Palisades Garden
The garden below, also designed by Jay Griffith, has an understated elegance.
