Getty Gardens, rebar trellis

Bougainrebartrellis.JPG


Robert Irwin's Central Garden at the Getty Center includes three magnificent Bougainvillea trellises assembled from concrete rebar alone. Their shapes suggest small fanciful Baobab trees, and offer just about the same amount of shade to the benches arranged at their feet.



What is the name of the sage-colored ground cover below the rebar trellis?

That rebar trellis is amazing! What incredible creativity!
