She is traveling on a NARGS speaking tour but was not booked to talk in Portland, so this is an opportunity to hear about her work in an informal way. If you live in the Portland/Vancouver metro area or are in Portland for the HPSO "Hortlandia" plant sale, please consider coming! > > The party will be from about 4 pm to about 7 pm at the home of Jane McGary, 4620 SE View Acres Road, Milwaukie, OR; tel. 503-786-2579.
