Altadena Heritage’s Golden Poppy Garden Awards and Fete will
take place Sunday, June 27, from 4 to 6:30 p.m. in member Pat Corcoran’s
lovely gardens at 1101 E. Altadena Drive. Her 1920s classic Spanish
Revival home (whose garden features an avocado marriage tree) will
provide the backdrop to again celebrate Altadena’s gardens and
gardeners.
We will honor several whose creators have added beauty to neighborhoods through greening efforts that “give” to the street. In keeping with Altadena Heritage’s sustainability theme, we will pay special attention to gardens whose delights do not depend on lawns, excessive watering, and that make use of native and drought tolerant plantings.
Renowned cellist Diego Miralles will provide musical entertainment — and tea, wine, and other refreshments will be served.
$15 for members and $20 for others. A perfect opportunity to join or renew; bring friends and neighbors to Altadena Heritage’s quintessential summer celebration.
Make reservations at altadenaheritage@earthlink.net or by calling 626/797-0054.
