Events: Mother’s Day at Descanso

No matter how dutiful a son or daughter you are, you probably won’t be able to secure 3,000 varieties of roses to give to Mom on Mother’s Day. Unless, that is, you take her Descanso Gardens, where a panopoly of flora will be in full bloom and Patina will cater a special brunch for you and Mom, who really wishes you’d call more often. Descanso Gardens, 1418 Descanso Drive, La Cañada-Flintridge. 9 and 10:30 a.m., noon and 1:30 p.m. Sat.-Sun. $50. https://www.descansogardens.org.
