    My pleasure. I am afraid that I took many more photos of the architecture than the gardens at the Getty, and therefore have few botanical photos to share. These two shots put side by side do give a little of both.

    Hi,
    I've seen the architecture in photos, but not the gardens--fabulous. Thanks for letting me 'visit' via your photography, Marnie

    Marnie,

    Thank you for your kind words.

    There is a wonderful book intitled "Plants in the Getty's Central Garden" by Jim Duggan, with garden photography by Becky Cohen. I believe it is available on line from the Getty Gift Shop.

    You can Google the Getty Center, as well as the Getty Villa (which is like visiting the home of a fabulously weathy Greek aristocrat. I also recommend the two books on the Lotusland gardens available from lotusland.org
