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...
Winter sun is so precious, and your cute flamingo reminds me of the approaching(!) summer!
ReplyDeleteSunshine and flamingoes. A warming thought on a 24degree day.
ReplyDeleteHa! You've got a little patch of Florida right there ;)
ReplyDeleteI agree with Fernando, although I wouldn't mind spring happening before summer.
ReplyDeleteOh Phillip - that is adorable! I have a feeling I need to find emergency shelter for a lot of hitherto homeless plants before this weekend. It's going to be bad.... Fernando should thank his lucky stars he is not forgotten outside somewhere. Even if the light is slowly returning, it will be awhile before flamingo-friendly temperatures will follow.
ReplyDeleteHim and all the rest of us! Love him.
