What a great place to stay! I'm going to check it out online. I'm pretty sure your unknown plant is Aruncus dioicus, aka goat's beard. It's a Missouri native, so I bet it will grow in your area.
ReplyDeleteAlison, of course that is it. I knew it, just couldn't remember!
ReplyDeleteLooks like they put a lot of thought into co-existence with nature. Good, that.
ReplyDeleteWhat a restful place and an interesting living concept! Leave it to Portlanders to think of something so cool!
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of such a place. This one is beautiful. What a neat experience.
ReplyDeleteI was going to take a stab at the plant ID, but I see Alison beat me to it. I hope you did not run into any dirty hippies.
