Garden Glamour
A Breathtaking Miami Garden Defined by Towering Oak Trees
We’re heading to Miami, Florida, where internationally renowned landscape designer and author Fernando Wong takes us inside a breathtaking garden.
Fernando gives us a behind-the-scenes look at Shangri La — a stunning project where the entire outdoor space was demolished and completely rebuilt in just eight months.
Working beneath a mature canopy of oaks and palms, Fernando reimagined the estate from the ground up — introducing French-inspired symmetry, sweeping porcelain pathways, and a dramatic 20-by-70-foot pool framed by custom pavilions and antique limestone fountains sourced in Paris. The result is a landscape that feels timeless, elegant, and utterly transporting.
Fernando’s vision extends far beyond this Miami garden. His new book, The Young Man and the Tree — with a foreword by Martha Stewart — offers a vivid look at his most extraordinary projects in Palm Beach, Nassau, and beyond, celebrating the artistry and layered plantings that have made him one of the world’s most sought-after landscape designers.
Join us as Fernando Wong gives a personal tour of Shangri La, a garden that proves outdoor living can be every bit as inspiring and soulful as the home itself. You won’t want to miss it!
