Add the man made contrasts of circles, ovals, rectangles, squares & spires.
.
Toss in multiple axis, changes of elevation, and canopy-understory-walls-floor.

Even a non-gardener knows, intuitively, the plant selections are CHOICE. Serenity of greens, low maintenance, no irrigation & perfect pollinator habitat.

Yes, this pic by Slim Aaron ca. 1960, is an exciting garden. Gardens are all CONTRASTS.
I doubt they thought about the garden at all. Their clothes, the gossip, & dry martinis, yes.

Garden & Be Well, XO Tara

I would love to have such a "happy" garden. Truly inspirational.
Can hardly wait to garden again! Come on out, spring!

Thanks for the winter escape.

You mean that scene was purposed and did not come by random chaos? You must not have gotten the memo from too many LA's and designers here.
Seriously, such a scene is WHY I am an LA, serene because someone(s) had the time to care and did.

It's obvious this garden was created by a LA.
One of the rare LA's. One such as you.
A soul of grace.
