Theodore Payne Native Plant Garden Tour showcases 40 landscapes around L.A.
The Boojum Tree(native to Baja California), center along with Night Blooming Cereus and other succulents in Debe Loxton and Martha Clark’s yard.
Learn about wildlife, butterfly habitats, runoff management and more at the 13th Theodore Payne Native Plant Garden Tour on April 2 and 3.
The two-day, self-driven tour features more than 40 gardens composed of at least 50% native plants in the Los Angeles area.
Private garden owners — many of whom designed and installed their own landscapes — will be on site to share secrets, as will Theodore Payne docents. Look for more on the event in our March 26 issue.
