High above the Coachella Valley out in the Mojave Desert Carl S. has been conducting an experiment that, until now, has been very private. Too splendid to remain secret, Carl’s garden haven offers an inspiring look at the possibilities for an all-native, drought-tolerant landscape that this self-taught desert gardener cultivated from a once featureless parcel. Located on the eastern edge of Joshua Tree, much of Carl’s oasis sprang from seed he grew himself. A keen observer, Carl’s trial-and-error approach to discovering the hardiest specimens best suited for this hot and dry climate paid off in the form of a thriving plot of homegrown paradise. (Correction: 0:37 is mislabeled. That tree is actually a Chilean Mesquite.)
You are free to stroll the wide paths. Relax, follow your own inspiration through the ocotillo garden, discover the entertainment area in the shade of palo verde trees. Become inspired and informed by this MBCA 2023 Desert-Wise Landscape Tour video with this beautiful, thoughtful garden in the Morongo Basin, in San Bernardino County, Southern California.
