GARDEN UNDERWATER PARTY

Yes, the beauty of a floral arrangement is what you see above the vase, but spectacular underwater visuals make quite a statement, too. And we're impressed with the underwater art forms created at the high-end English Garden Fine Florals in Laguna Beach.

For dramatic visuals, owner Anita Rohloff and her team artistically arrange kiwi branches, succulents, protea and more in a vase below the waterline. Above, The English Garden arranges beautiful groupings of flowers and enhances bouquets with curled bear grass and added foliage for interesting design elements. They also design gorgeous garlands, theme trees, wreaths, and more at holidays.

The English Garden also offers a gift section with a mix of contemporary and vintage home furnishings.

Open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday; 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.
1199 S. Coast Highway in Laguna Beach. 949.494.7114.
