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

I would like to thank the academy...


Just kidding, but I've always wanted to say that!

I would like to thank all the gardening blotanists who voted for my blog in the 2009 Blotanical Awards. This morning I discovered that I had won Best Alabama Blog. I appreciate the honor and I'll display my badge proudly!
