A massive garden! And you are right, there are many wonderful vignettes throughout. The slightly stressed sedum Angelina in a pot, or the potted chartreuse bamboo... great artistic combinations.
ReplyDeleteI can't tell if it is a rusted shelf or a bench in the photo, but I want it! :-D

A peony field? I think I my husband and I may need to revisit our discussion of a move to the Puget Sound area...Laura's garden is absolutely fabulous.
ReplyDeleteKris, she used to raise peonies.
DeleteWowza. Classic PNW garden. Looks like your area got a very rainy rainy season.
ReplyDeleteSame reaction as Kris: a peony...field?!?!! I can only dream!

ReplyDeleteLaura Scott has an excellent eye for garden vignettes. The potted short bamboo agains the rusty metal, the heat stressed sedum Angelina in the urn with glass orbs, the totally drool worthy rusted shelf, or bench. Inspired combinations!
