The Olin and Ann Barrett Garden (Pasadena, California)
United States of America -- California -- Los Angeles County -- Pasadena
Scope and Contents:
The folder includes work sheet, narrative description and site plans.
General:
This 1.5 acre property is situated on the top of a hill with gardens on three sides of the main house. To the wet, a steep curving driveway lined with tall oleander trees and bordered with a variety of shrubs, plants and mature trees leads to the motor court edged with brick. The crushed granite of the motor court gives way to two "rugs" made of square paving stones interlaced with grass. Box hedges surround lemon trees on both sides of the front door--a theme repeated throughout the gardens. The lap pool in the swimming pool garden is adjoined by two ponds filled with aquatic plants, including papyrus, water lilies and cannas. Shrub borders surround the enclosed pool area. At the west end, a succulent bed with aloes and agaves makes a dramatic statement. A grapevine-covered pergola outside the fence is placed beside a small citrus groves. To the south, surrounded on three sides by the house, is a formal square courtyard garden, a quiet retreat dominated by the sound of water cascading into tiled basins. A stone and brick trellis covered with rose "Shot Silk" forms the fourth side of the square. The loggia on the east side offers shade during the hot summer months.
Persons and organizations associated with the garden include: Bob Ray Offenhauser (architect, 1968) and Mark Bartos (landscape architect, 2001-2005).

General:
When purchased in 1993 there was a pecan tree growing in the otherwise unkempt one-tenth acre property that had a neglected 1850 apartment building and a second building, now a guest house. The owner designed four garden rooms: a keyhole-shaped boxwood parterre, rose and vegetable beds, an open lawn with borders, and a fountain surrounded by semi-tropical perennials. Six hedges were planted as backdrop and for privacy, including euonymus, Japanese yew and lavender crape myrtle. A washed gravel patio with all-weather furniture, planted containers and an outdoor sink were installed between the two buildings. The parterre and neighboring rose garden can be seen from one end of the patio, the fountain from the other. The perennial bed surrounding the fountain contains farfugium (leopard plant), fatsia, papyrus, and a camellia with a fig vine covering the wall behind. Roses, azaleas, camellias, and a hibiscus provide nearly year round color. In the mild climate the owner sows lettuce seeds in September and harvests greens until it's too hot; the vegetables are replaced by celosia grown from saved seed. Other vegetables and herbs include carrots, beets, Swiss chard, radishes, a permanent rosemary and basil.
Persons associated with the garden include: the Dixon family (former owners, 1850-1920); Mrs. Alma Kellogg (former owner, 1920-1990); Cane Callon (former owner, 1990-1993); Robert Drane (garden assistant, 2000- )
