South Pasadena, California
1918
In 1918, Henry Greene was hired by Theodore A. Kramer to complete
a planting plan for the garden adjacent to his house as well
as alterations to the late-Victorian residence itself. The planting
plan called for over 150 different plant materials, and the
garden plan included furniture, a pergola, arbor, and other
designs such as a mirrored gazing-ball and a vine-shaded bench.
Henry used a rigid geometry for the lawns and pathways nearest
to the house, but the adjacent area to the north had a more
naturalistic flow with winding paths, water features, and rock
outcroppings, all under the shade of large old oak trees.
