From disaster to Mediterranean oasis. This garden features new decks, play lawn, vegetable beds, built in bbq, fire-bowl, decomposed granite and tile patios, and low voltage lighting.

Fritz Haeg has an amazing installation right now at Descanso Gardens. “Edible Estates is an ongoing series of projects to replace the front lawn with edible garden landscapes responsive to culture, climate, context and people!”
