Portland Study Weekend Gardens - West Linn, Clackamas & Oregon City pt. 1
Last Saturday, I saw the six gardens featured on the HPSO Study Weekend tour. These gardens were in the southern part of Portland. I was excited to see Sherry Sheng's garden. She has visited our garden in the past, and I got to know her better when we were on the England trip together. Her garden was a delight with something fabulous at every turn. Next, the Connall garden which has a Mediterranean, drought-resistant planting scheme. The Harry Landers garden was packed with colorful flowers and a koi pond - Text and photos by Phillip Oliver, Dirt Therapy
Get that lady a shawl, preferably not made of snow.

ReplyDeleteme, too, Phillip! ps there's an SOS in word verification!
ReplyDeleteI'd say she looks a little chilly.
ReplyDeleteIt was nice getting out last Saturday with my tractor hauling mulch to my daylilies and cleaning up fallen limbs. 72 degrees really felt warm, even the dogs were panting from the heat. My daffodils are coming up. Mom next door has one with a bloom on it. Getting close. Mary
ReplyDeleteNeat photo captions. Here's mine. Hmm, maybe it's too early to go skinny dipping! LOL Spring is coming though if we can tough it out in Feb. It's already the 5th.
