> All I need just now is a list of possibilities
Hi Mark and everyone,
I have joined the list recently and wish to invite everyone to visit
my place. I have about 10 acres at my farm near Eugene, Oregon. I
think most anyone would enjoy the place. I think it best to warn
anyone who is into neat and tidy: It is a mess and weedy and things
are disorganized and poorly labelled. It may be hard to see it all in
one visit. My main focuses are cut-flowers, rockgarden, and
Natives.
I agree much of the best stuff is in the wild. BTW, the trees are
not the only reason to the see the Redwoods forest. In mountainous
areas, peak of blooms moves up in elevation as the Spring
progresses. The later you visit, the higher you ought to look. The
natural rock gardens at high elevations are great as late as August,
or so (July might be better?). There is another wildflower show (Mt.
Pisgah) near Eugene, Oregon in early to mid-May. Timing the trip to
catch organized events such as the NARGS or other society annual
Meetings can be very worthwhile for garden tours, wildland tours
and speakers. Have fun, KellyO
