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 just love surprises in the garden. This is a beauty. I have never had a bromeliad rebloom for me. Lucky you. Can't wait to see it in full flower.
ReplyDeleteHi Phillip, That's exciting to see a surprise bloom, especially one so beautiful. I know you're enjoying the cooler temperatures.
ReplyDeleteLove it!! So fun when a plant blooms unexpectedly. I look forward to seeing it open.
ReplyDeleteI love surprise blooms. They are the sweetest. Happy Monday!
ReplyDeleteHow pretty, you know I should get some for winter color in the house. Do they tolerate the dry air inside during winter?
ReplyDeleteRandy, they do. I've not had any problems with them inside.
