Who wouldn’t want to steal away to this garden nook? Tom Nelson and Randy Bolin designed this structure for their hot tub in their Oakland, California, garden. It’s nestled into a tropical setting just out of sight of their home and features artwork and momentos from their travels. The open roof-work allows them to catch a glimpse of the stars and moon through the vines at night.

Welcome to the Fine Gardening Garden Photo of the Day blog! Every weekday we post a new photo of a great garden, a spectacular plant, a stunning plant combination, or any number of other subjects. Think of it as your morning jolt of green.

Sign up to get new posts delivered to your inbox each morning, so you’ll always remember to take a look. We look forward to sharing our garden travels with you.

If you think you have a photo that we should share on the Garden Photo of the day, email us. Send hi-res images to [email protected] with GPOD in the subject line. We’ll only respond if we plan to use your photo.
