Native Plant Garden Tour: A SoCal Tradition in Bloom
Since 2004, the Theodore Payne Foundation Annual Native Plant Garden Tour has been a celebration of creativity, community, and the power of California native plants. This two-day, self-guided tour showcases inspiring landscapes across Greater Los Angeles, offering a unique look into how native plants can transform gardens, neighborhoods, and lives.
The Garden Tour features a diverse range of public and private spaces—from coastal container gardens to urban homesteads, lush pollinator havens to hillside restorations. Each garden is a living example of what’s possible when beauty meets ecological purpose. All featured gardens include at least 50% California native plants and reflect a range of styles, sizes, and site conditions.
Garden Tour '26:
Habitats That Heal
We’re honored to feature artwork by Carly Lake, whose cover illustration captures the spirit of the tour and the ways that California native gardens nurture, restore, and connect us to the land. Mark your calendars for April 11-12, 2026!
Featured Gardens
We are excited to spotlight four gardens that represent resilience, community, and invaluable native habitat. They are exemplars of the Theodore Payne Foundation’s mission to inspire Angelinos with the beauty and ecological benefits of native plant landscapes, from coast to crest.
