One Earth Botanical
It is always exciting to discover a new nursery, especially when so many are closing these days. A friend recently introduced me to One Earth Botanical. They are located at 24001 NE 28th Street in Camas, Washington and are open on Fridays and Saturdays from 10-3. This is a family-owned nursery specializing in perennials, shrubs and trees. I was impressed by their inventory and saw some plants that I didn't know existed, such as the red-blooming Cestrum called "Ruby Clusters" pictured at the top. Their prices are also awesome (most of the perennials I saw were $7 with larger sized pots around $12 - $15.) Stephanie gave us a tour of their 8-acre property which includes large display gardens, areas for weddings and other events and an in-the-works yurt which will be opened as a B&B. She says they have to deal with deer and she is knowlegeable about plants they don't like. In addition to all that, they also do beekeeping I need some of their energy! They are locate...
I think that having all the fallen petals on the ground is so lovely. It kinds of extends the beauty of the tree's flowering and makes for very mystical pictures.

The pink "snow" is beautiful :)
ReplyDeletePhillip,
ReplyDeleteHello, that is the perfect kind of snow! Lovely photos...we have had lots of ran and my hope is that we can over come last year's drought but some plants are gone forever.

That's the only down side of gardening. The flowers don't last long enough. But that is also what makes them so special!
ReplyDeleteThe beauty may be temporary, Phillip, but it's real! I like the photo of the birdbath - it seems to be calling mythical birds to come for the petals.

Wow, that's nice. Maybe some of my neighbor's cherry petals will blow in to my yard now that he's removed some plants that obstructed it.
ReplyDeleteGod's dandruff.
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos Phillip. Your garden looks like an absolute paradise. I would never leave it.
