From the Valley to the Sea

Apr. 2

Every spring, the San Diego Horticultural Society organizes a tour of significant gardens in a particular area of San Diego County. This year’s tour, titled “From the Valley to the Sea,” will feature gardens in private homes in Del Mar and Carmel Valley. Nine gardens will showcase some of the area’s finest contemporary landscapes. While every garden on the tour has plantings particularly well suited to San Diego’s distinctive climate, each has taken a unique approach to making the most of San Diego’s plant-friendly environment. Tour gardens include a Hawaiian fantasy, a palm-studded paradise, a succulent jewel box, and a celebration of the plants of Australia and New Zealand. One garden is a living plant tapestry, while another gives a special nod to California native plants. The tour also includes the Del Mar Garden Club’s annual Plant Sale, which will feature one-of-a-kind living plant arrangements and plant art for the garden. 619.296.9215, sdhort.org/gardentour
