We have been living in Whitefield Bangalore for the last 13 years. Having always lived in apartments, we never really had the pleasure of having our own garden. However when we built this house our wish was granted, and we are very happy with the way our garden was designed.
Following the Spanish architecture (which was my husband's idea), our landscape architect designed a beautiful perennial garden for us, for we did not want to keep changing plants off and on, nor did we want plants that needed lot of water.
Of course, we had to change a few plants here and there because as the taller plants started to grow, the shorter ones were deprived of enough sunlight, but basically the main plants have remained the same throughout.
We have plenty of arches, a pergola, and our garden has a lovely curvy pattern all around, which goes very well with our Spanish villa theme.
I must warn you there are lots and lots of pictures, so enter at your own risk....
Here are a few pictures of our garden:
Our front lawn
Our courtyard
Our Rock/ Pebble garden
The Terracotta Mural
Our Spanish Bell visible through the palm trees
The Cashew tree which was such a baby when we first bought this plot
and it has grown so big and beautiful.
Another view of Courtyard, before the poison ivy started growing, and covering the arch
The Alamendas
This the Tumburjiya creeper that is growing on our pergola, it is so beautiful: the golden flowers would hang down.

This our kitchen, from where i can see the world go by as I cook
This is when the flowers are in full bloom, and below when this plant still looks beautiful without flowers
and it has grown so big and beautiful.

Beautiful Lantanas
There are so many pictures, but I don't want to bore you with too many pictures, as it is it has turned out to be photo blog.
Did you enjoy our garden?
