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
This is the kind of fireworks I like in the garden. I remember how wonderful they smell and how horrible they can stain a white shirt.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful. I agree with comment above about the fireworks.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing your lilies! Our deer may like our lilies more than our hostas -- there were buds on them 2 days and ago and now they are nibbled to stems only. Oh well, at least we can rejoice in yours. Best to you!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo! And is that a bee in the corner of the picture? I don't think I've ever seen a bee visit a lily. Maybe it just landed there for a rest? :)
ReplyDeleteI have a few of these and I love to bring them inside as cut flowers. They smell wonderful! Yours are great. Any takers on your home yet? Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteGah! It's so pretty! I keep saying that I need to plant a few lilies, and this really convinced me. Gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteLove these lilies...yours are gorgeous!
