MARIO BENITO LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE

Canyon Palms

Canyon Palms Residence, Palm Springs, CA

In the Canyon Palms neighborhood, this midcentury home’s front yard, once described by the client as looking like a “Wild West ghost town”, has been brought back to life. The new design replaces bare gravel with a layered, water-wise garden anchored by sculptural Mesquites and woven with Valentine Emu Bush, Bougainvillea, and a mix of colorful desert perennials and succulents.
The result is a vibrant, low-maintenance landscape that softens the home’s modern lines and celebrates the spirit of desert living with warmth, color, and movement.
