I was in the garden today…dodging raindrops on the way into a meeting…and I reflected on how beautiful this garden is…even on the very dreariest of wet spring days…
I noted some boxwood trimming had begun…
the pergola construction was well underway…
making us glad that this structure will be there providing shade next summer…like it did last summer…and for many summers to come…
the rain has helped the new lawn in the drying garden flourish…
and once inside…the fire was going and Bobbie was welcoming Bill Noble to the meeting.
Bill is here in Oregon lecturing on the Cornish Colony in New Hampshire. His lecture in Salem is this coming Sunday (March 19th) at 2:00 in the Dye House at the Willamette Heritage Center. I KNOW you won’t want to miss this one. Bill formerly was with the Garden Conservancy and now works as a consultant to many famous gardens, including our own. He is a knowledgeable and lively person, pictured like this for publicity purposes…
and here are my meeting notes…
but today we had a little fun…
See you Sunday!
