The rosettes of Aeonium 'Sunburst' effectively repeat the harmonious lines appearing throughout the garden, where Victor Amador, the garden's third-generation concrete contractor/designer worked intuitively, applying an organic approach to the creation of walls, stairs, walkways, and special focal points.
The curving planes of a wall embrace a bevy of drought tolerant plants.
The alluring, sinuous lines of hand-crafted iron work are outstanding.
Landscape architecture at its best.
ReplyDeleteHi Alice, that is a beautiful garden but among the plants there i love the variegated Aeonium. Does it thrive in the tropics like ours, i havent seen one here. thanks.
ReplyDeleteLakeviewer,
ReplyDeleteGlad you like what you see!
Andrea,
They do like heat but they grow in the cool, rainy season. They are from North Africa and the Canary Islands. Would your climate be similar?
Hi Alice, thanks for this post that provided me with a satisfying and aesthetic feast. I particularly love the iron gate and the repeated curves. Hope all is well with you, cheers, catmint
