Lotusland pt 1

Lotusland is an amazing garden near Santa Barbara. The property is large enough (37 acres) and Ganna Walska's ambition was grand enough, for a design of boldly massed plants which have grown to impressive mature size. In each themed garden, you are immersed in different fantastical landscapes-- moving under giant dragon trees, or through a forest with hanging baskets of cacti, or on a path through a venerable olive grove.
