Lens Flare in Palm Springs Garden

Flowers and lens flare in Palm Springs

Walk around anywhere in Palm Springs and you'll see gardens. Just about every piece of exposed land contains a garden from the medians that break up the streets to the front and backyards of most of  single family housing.

No where will you find better gardens--colorful annual flowers among water features and Washingtonias--than the golf course.


Gardens range from drought tolerant sandy spaces filled with flowering cacti to tropical rainforests under a canopy of banana leaves.

Now that summer is coming, we'll once again attempt to figure out how flowering gardens survive temperatures that approach 120 degrees.  Any ideas?
