Bedroom - coastal bedroom idea in Los Angeles

New Pavers had been installed in the driveway and retaining walls. We chose plants that would tie in to the hints of colors in pavers. Since the pavers had both greys and warm colors we echoed that in our cool blues of senecio serpens "chalk fingers", and the warms of the orange allows and "fire sticks". The purple trailing plant is our fun color surprise.

Farmhouse Kitchen Remodel This beautifully reimagined farmhouse kitchen blends rustic charm with modern functionality, creating a warm and inviting space for gathering, cooking, and entertaining. Clean white shaker cabinetry provides a timeless foundation, while the deep charcoal island adds contrast and anchors the room. The standout custom range hood, crafted from richly stained wood, echoes the natural warmth of the floating shelves and ties in with the dark woven barstools. Oversized pendant lights above the island offer a stylish, industrial touch and illuminate the expansive quartz countertop—perfect for prepping meals or enjoying casual breakfasts. Built-in appliances and a hidden refrigerator maintain a sleek, uncluttered look, while the adjacent butler’s pantry extends storage and prep space, ideal for hosting. Open shelving showcases curated dishes and glassware, adding a personal and airy element to the space. A cozy coffee bar nestled in the corner provides a dedicated moment of luxury, complete with custom lighting and backsplash. With its thoughtful layout, textural layers, and soft modern palette, this kitchen is the perfect blend of form and function—embracing farmhouse soul with elevated design.

To get these kind of results, there are 4 key ingredients. 1. Professional potting mix with granular fertilizer mixed in, 2. weekly half strength of liquid fertilizer and 3. super petunia. The new petunias are far superior to the run of the mill ones. 4. most of all- consistent watering, taking care not to water the plants leaves and flowers, water the soil. The new petunias have incredible garden performance, dependable plant vigor, superior heat tolerance and improved disease resistance. One brand is Supertunia Vista petunias– they are very vigorous, with mounding habits that can reach up to 2 feet in height in the landscape and will trail over the edges of baskets and containers up to 4 feet by the end of the season as you can see in this pic. They are fantastic landscape plants and are great in large containers, where they function as both fillers and spillers. In garden beds, they will work either in the front or middle of the bed. They have medium-sized flowers.
