Revisting the McElhaney Garden
The last garden on the East Vancouver Mini-Tour was that of Judy and Roger McElhaney. I had visited their garden previously in 2016 and was just blown away. It is hard to believe that it is now eight years later. At first, I didn't recognize their garden. It is astounding how things have grown. The majority is very shady with the exception of one side (pictured above) that is open to the sky. A beautiful Mock Orange Acer palmatum 'Shirazz' This was the most beautiful shrub, about 5 feet tall and wide and covered with blooms. Judy could not remember what it was but we decided it might be a deutzia. Text and photos by Phillip Oliver, Dirt Therapy
You have so many wonderful gardens in the PNW! I love the flower-filled metal buckets.
ReplyDeleteThe iron gate is wonderful, and the wheels making a fence. Along with the beautiful flowers, of course!
