Set among the coastal sage scrub of Laguna Beach’s Boat Canyon, the Hortense Miller Garden showcases California natives, combined with introduced species, in a naturally beautiful hillside setting. Tails of seasonal wildflowers, delicate California irises, stately Torrey pines and drought-adapted shrubs mingle along winding paths, offering changing colors, fragrances and textures throughout the year. These plantings thrive in the coastal climate while providing valuable food and shelter for bees, butterflies, hummingbirds and other local wildlife, creating a garden that feels deeply connected to Southern California’s native landscape.
