The Lakers’ purple and gold color combination is immediately recognizable and has become so iconic that it is almost inseparable from the team itself. The two colors evoke a sense of regality and royalty, which is fittingly reflective of the Lakers’ heritage, strength, and continued success. Drawing inspiration from the iconic colors of the Los Angeles Lakers, this garden design celebrates the team's legacy with a vibrant palette dominated by hues of yellow, blue and purple.

To infuse a fiery burst of interest, touches of amber (yellow-orange) are strategically incorporated throughout. Adding depth and dimension to the landscape, low-growing Lotus formosissimus (H), aptly nicknamed our "groundfire," creates a stunning amber carpet at the base of towering blue and purple specimens. The majestic Helenlum puberulum (I) rises tall, providing a striking contrast against the azure skies. Delicate spires of deep blue and purple Lupines (A, D) and Delphiniums (B) gracefully punctuate the scene, juxtaposing the rounded forms of the amber species with their elegant verticality.
