Late spring in San Diego is the season for garden tours. If you have never participated in any of the numerous local events, this might be a great time to start. Satisfy your voyeurism, get inspired! They are a great way to connect with the local gardening community, and, of course, to spy on what your neighbors are doing.
One tour in particular reached out to me, the Loma Portal Home and Garden Tour on May 14. It benefits Loma Portal Elementary School’s Music Program and will include eight to ten homes and gardens in the Loma Portal neighborhood. Tickets are online at www.lomaportalelementary.com
Here is list of a few more garden tours in and around San Diego this spring, care of Sunset Magazine:
