It's no secret that we're slightly envious of Cameron Diaz's Beverly Hills residence: a quietly luxurious farmhouse complete with a white marble kitchen and high-ceilinged living space. There's a lot to feel influenced by – but arguably, nothing is quite as inspiring as her backyard – where the actress experiments with a clever vertical garden trick.
In her yard, Cameron has planted a collection of tall olive trees, all of which climb up her otherwise conventional gray-painted exterior wall. While we admit that the wall does not deserve to be labeled as 'unsightly,' it would be significantly less interesting without the vertical planting that adds lush interest against the blank backdrop.
