Indah Bulan, Linda Lee Worlow

FIELD NOTES:

My friendship with Lindy Lee dates back to my first year in Southern California 1990, when I first volunteered at the Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden where she was the Volunteer Coordinator. She has been one of the greatest influences on my life, personally and professionally. We at Indah Bulan cherish her friendship and the ongoing opportunity to create rooms in her garden. Lindy Lee has also been a great patron of Indah Bulan, as several of our clients have been from her recommendations. Thank you, Lindy Lee, we truly love, admire and treasure you.

The Little Grey House has been a feature for years at Indah Bulan, here is a link to the beginnings of that magical garden. Below is an update on what we have been working on, and how her garden has grown. I do want to say that although Lindy Lee has the spirit of a gardener and a great knowledge of California Native plants, over the years she has taught us what a low-maintenance, water wise garden really is, and can be.

Welcome to The Little Grey House!�	Linda Lee Worlow our darling friend!��	Hardy drought tolerant plants provide color, form and very little water!�
California Natives mixed in with dry loving plants.... a great combo	Striking orange blossoms of the Monkey Flower... a California Native��	A water-wise garden basking in the morning sun!�
More lovely color without all the water!�	Entrance, The Little Grey House, sculpted sidewalk was our first project!	Gray decomposed granite, a perfect choice for this house. "DG" as it is called, is easily inlaid with tiles and special rocks.��
This is a view of the path way in the front garden.	Are you missing all the grass? I think not!	View of the sculpted walk way from the front door.�

Another way to add a splash of color is to add hardy perennials like this old fashioned Iris.	The Windmill is still going strong!	Which side of the fence is this California Live Oak planted?
Pottery can be a great treat for the eye.	� Recirculated water provides lovely sound and a mosquito free doggy bowl!�	Lovely.�
What a nice surprise in the garden. It's scenes like this that gives a garden character.�	Frannie and Miss Shug are always up for smart luncheon!	Color abounds!
We made a shelf from two Mexican chairs... for Linda's pottery collection.�		�
One of two old church chandeliers from a church in Carmel.	An artist's view��	Lovely for candle lit dinners under the ole Oak Tree.�
Your hostess with the mostess!	Mosaic table made by Michael Rodriguez of Indah Bulan. Material, marble and broken dishes.	Michael enjoys his creation.�
Luncheon is served... one of the many benefits of our times with Lindy Lee!�	A cup of coffee for for the landscape architect. I'm always happy to be at the Little Grey House.�	California has the ideal weather for dinning alfresco... why not create a space of your own!
