We love this garden vignette. Designed by Tom Nelson and Randy Bolin in Oakland, California, it features earthenware pots and a metal panel in harmonious hues. An array of textural plants compliments them perfectly. Small details like a half-hidden face are icing on the cake.

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 it in your mailbox, 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.
