We don't see a lot of conifers in gardens down here. Textual contrast is fascinating, especially first photo.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Phillip, for starting this.
My links are about Camellias, the brightest star down here this time of year.

I like the design. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI am excited to see this garden. I am trying to incorporate more conifers and their cousins into my garden. I am preparing for my dotage. ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing this beautiful Oregon garden. I am a fan of using various types of evergreens for all season interest, and this collection is absolutely stunning! I have quite a few evergreens in my own collection that give me much joy, but I am always looking for more!
