VALUED CUSTOMERS & FRIENDS+
Los Angeles’ mindset is changing, and so will our aesthetic. We will have a more water wise Los Angeles. The question now becomes, what will our city look like? Will we replace English-style gardens with Arizona-inspired xeriscapes? Or will we choose the lush, lovely and distinctive California natives that bring us to an authentic sense of place? Come see us at Descanso Gardens or a neighborhood tour this spring and let us know what you think!
