Yeah I'd say you started off with a bang. That is a fabulous garden. I love the Mimosa and Filipendula. You got the angle just right to complement both with the blue sky behind it. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteHi Phillip, this is a great garden! I especially love your second photo of it and the last with the lavender poppy. I have been to plenty of open gardens on our England vacation, but none so far here in San Diego. Your are so right, it would be sad not to see some local ones this year. So I will try to find out which are open in the near future.

What a colorful garden. I have the Country Gardens Magazine. I hardly recognize the place. Your photos show off the place much better than the magazine did. I can't wait to see more. Do share.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this gorgeous garden! I love Sauvie Island. Do you suppose the owners would mind if we moved into their garden?
ReplyDeleteYour photos are certainly doing justice to this lovely garden! Every time I see these showpiece gardens, I immediately wonder how they care for that much space!
ReplyDeleteOh my.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you got to go
Thank you for sharing. Like you I haven't visited gardens this year but finally got around to it this week so glad I did
ReplyDeleteEvery weekend you can see a beautiful garden! You have moved to paradise! So loved this garden tour and look forward to any more you share.
ReplyDeleteBravo on the pic of the blue sculpture with the grasses. Well done!
ReplyDeleteEverything looks so green and lush. Just beautiful! What a wonderful open garden program. I'll have to investigate if there is something similar here.
ReplyDeleteThese gardens are absolutely gorgeous! Thanks so much for sharing.
