Southern California Garden Tours in May
Tis the season for garden tours! If you haven’t taken advantage of local garden tours yet this year, it’s such a fun and inspiring way to spend a day! I had the pleasure of being one of the gardens included in the Mary Lou Heard Memorial Garden tour in Orange County this past weekend. I met so many wonderful people and shared the joy of gardening with them. If you want to enjoy examples of beautiful, creative, and inspiring gardens in all their spring glory, here are some garden tours taking place in Southern California this month! (Makes a great outing with ‘Mom’ during this ‘Mother’s Day’ month!)
Also, see below for photos of my garden this past weekend!
