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
What in the world? That thing looks like i feel! It's our first week back at school.
ReplyDeleteIt does look a bit haggard, doesn't it? That is a "Mutabalis" rose bloom.
ReplyDeleteI was just going to ask what the pink flower was, i think it's beautiful and the background of the photo is unusual, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI love the way Mutabilis changes color on the bush....
ReplyDeleteWhat a striking photo! I really love it! :o)
ReplyDeleteI've loved that rose from afar since I first met it.
ReplyDeleteSweet!
ReplyDeleteYou've made even this tattered bloom look beautiful, Phillip!
