I wrote about the garden under the avocado tree in Laguna last week and here is another shot of that area. I love gardening in the shade because everything gets so lush and full with just a little bit of water. I do love white flowers in the shade as it gives an instant cooling effect as you can see here with the white heliotrope and calla lilies.
This is about life in my gardens. One is an acre on a hillside in Laguna Beach, California and the other is an acre in San Juan Capistrano, California.

Shad gardens are very pretty.
Sheila .. I really notice a drop in temperatures in the shade part of my garden .. even standing under an arbor that is filled in with vines .. it is amazing and so pretty too !
Hi Sheila, Wow, that cala lily is huge..I would grow that if just for the lovely foliage, really beautiful!
