Thea's Parents' Garden





Went back in time yesterday to dye eggs with some of my best friends at a house we all spent a lot of time in in High School. Thea's Parents' house in echo park has a giant backyard with 4 raised bed vegetable gardens, a koi pond, wildflowers (from Theodore Payne), a cheramoya tree, a whole succulent propogation area and a beautiful view. It always feels reassuring to be able to return to a place that is so familiar and so beautiful.

Hi Laure, Thanks for the garden tour. All that land, wow! Your blog has been enjoyable not only to look at but to read. I'm always learning something. We seem to have blue garden wall in common, as well. That makes me a big fan.

That is a beautiful garden. I'm jealous of vegetable beds and Koi ponds! Why?! because I can't have one. Sigh.

There is nothing like a hillside garden. Thank you for sharing that heaven isn't in formal design so much as it is in when a garden is grown with love and time. Best
