Garden Scenes

Every desert garden has its own mood. Browse these scenes and tell me which ones feel like home — it’s the best way to start designing yours.

Spiky

Agaves, yuccas, aloes, upright forms. More planted and designed than bare desert.

Lush

Fuller, greener, springy desert look: shrubs, leafy growth, flowering accents, still climate appropriate.

Soft & Leafy

Denser greenery, privacy, shade, less cactus-forward. Feels cooler and more enclosed.

Open View

Minimal planting, gravel, mountain/desert setting, plants used as accents rather than massing.
