Rob Steiner Gardens
Eclectic Southern California gardens
I met Rob Steiner back when he was partners with Jay Griffith... it was an interview actually... and I didn't take the job. But that is another story. I liked Rob's work at the time, and I like it now.

Steiner brings a modern sensibility to his designs which are wonderfully composed and structured architecturally to create outdoor living spaces and extend and/or transform the architecture of the house. He is especially adept in his planting plans which (to borrow from his website since this says it best) "are distinguished for their graphic quality, successional bloom, subtle modulations of tone and year-round foliage interest."

Finally... unique gardening!
Thank you for posting modern gardening. It is SO difficult to find... in a gardening world of cottage-styles and jungles. What eye candy and inspiration.

Great plant textures
I love that plant texture shot. Anyone know what those red plants (shrubs??) are?

Sticks on Fire
I believe that the red plants are some variety of Euphorbia tirucalli, commonly called "Sticks on Fire." Succulents rule!
