Welcome To Hotel California: Some Pictures from My Backyard
by Robert Glenn Ketchum
I was born and grew up in Los Angeles. As my professional career developed, I traveled around the world working on various commissions, but seldom had opportunities to work in California. Nonetheless, I always came back “home,” and when there, I occasionally took pictures. For ten years I also taught a photography workshop on the Mendocino coast that provided some great visual moments as well. There is no “project” unifying these images, they are just my way of showing, “You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.

Hotel California, Some Pictures from My Backyard, #150California #150: This rose is a climber called “Josephs Coat”, because the flowers have many different colors. I had one at my family home in Bel Air that was gorgeous. When I moved to Manhattan Beach, the previous owners had erected a basketball standard in the back yard. When I bid to take it out, the contractor I approached wanted $3,000 for the removal, which I thought ridiculous, so I turned the standard into a climbing rose garden.

Now I live on 10th Street in Manhattan Beach, and this part of that garden. Although my clivias are not in a huge bed like in Bel Air, I still have a lot of them scattered all around this property. I also brought most of my epiphytes with me, two large ones you can see hanging here. Some of my epiphytes I have had for more than 20yrs.

Hotel California, Some Pictures from My Backyard, #147California #147: In my family home in Bel Air, our house was built in the early 1940’s, and it did not have air conditioning. Because the front of the house took sun all day long, I mitigated the heating of the
brick facade with various climbing plants. In the last post you saw the climbing rose that covered the north end. Here at the south end, I used giant honeysuckle which was not only beautiful to look at from the den windows, it was also very fragrant, and on warm nights I would open the bedroom windows upstairs and the scent would fill the bedrooms.

The front of the house faced directly west, so it took sun all day long. To mitigate the brick facade from heating up, we grew various vines up the brick wall. At the north end I planted an aggresive climbing rose that put out hundreds of pink flowers, most of the year.

Hotel California, Some Pictures from My Backyard, #145California #145: The hillside of my family home in
Bel Air used to be covered with ivy, lantana, and honey suckle, and it took a lot of water to keep it green. When I bought the home from my parents, I tore all that ground cover out and replaced it with cactus, aloes, and succulents. They needed much less water, and they were more fire resistant. This is the season of aloe blooms.

Hotel California, Some Pictures from My Backyard, #144California #144: There are aloe, and there are aloe. As I transitioned the gardens at my family home in
Bel Air to be more fire resistant, and less water consumptive, I took out embankments of ivy and honeysuckle, and replaced them with succulents and cacti. This was one of the stars of the garden, a HUGE aloe, taller than myself, and about 6ft. wide. Here it can be seen at peak bloom, sending up massive stalks of golden flowers. Equally profuse, on the hill behind, is a heavily laden tangerine tree, one of 9 different citrus trees planted on that hillside. I would like to thank my friend, Tracey Alsobrook for making this photo.

Hotel California, Some Pictures from My Backyard, #143California #143: The pool yard at my family home on
Stone Canyon Road in Bel Air had a semi-circle of dense, leafy trees that created a good bit of shade beneath them. Soon after my parents moved in, in 1948, my mother created an extensive clivia bed beneath the trees. Normally, over the years, as the clivia grew larger, they would be divided and replanted, but my mother chose not to do so, and just let them become huge mounds of leaves that produced hundreds of flowers in the blooming season. I would like to thank my friend, Tracey Alsobrook for making this photo.

Hotel California, Some Pictures from My Backyard, #142California #142: On the hill behind the pool at my family home on
Stone Canyon Road in Bel Air, there was a narrow, winding road that led up to several houses on the hillside. For our privacy, we had put up a chain link fence and grew a dense screen of trumpet vines upon it. To further the screen, and to provide color during the winter season, when I began changing the garden, we took the day lilies out of the hillside rising to the fence, and put in a massive planting of “red-hot poker” aloes, which typically bloom in late November, and on into December, providing the less colorful winter garden with a stunning display. I would like to thank my friend, Tracey Alsobrook for making this photo.

Hotel California, Some Pictures from My Backyard, #140California #140: My family home of 60yrs. hosted many different gardens. Behind the tables and chairs next to the swimming pool, I created a garden of native plant species, and let them intermingle as they grew larger. In this view you can see Pride of Madera, several different colors of sage, lavender, and a blooming
Pyracantha tree. Migrating
Cedar Waxwings would periodically strip our Pyracanthas of their berries, in a matter of minutes, an amazing thing to watch. I want to thank my friend, Tracey Alsobrook, for this photo.
