Lately, the nights have been surprisingly cool, right around the freezing point. This means I'm still a bit tentative about doing too much gardening. To keep busy, last Friday I drove north to attend the annual Plant Nerd Night. The next day, my sister and I hit the local nurseries. I got lots of inspiration while at
Bauman Farms in Gervais.
 |
| This hanging heart-shaped planter had cute flowers. |
|
 |
| Wood or ceramic? I had to check. Answer: ceramic. |
 |
| Cute succulent table |
 |
| Succulent wall art |
 |
| This funky fountain was calling my name. |
 |
| But I left without it. |
 |
| Stuffed to the brim. |
 |
| Fans are apparently all the rage right now. |
 |
| I wanted this too. |
 |
| Are these cute or what? |
 |
| More fans or faux windmill parts. |
 |
| I love rocks so these were really tempting. |
 |
| I love that they brought Birch branches inside to complement the displays. |
 |
| Such cool wall art |
 |
| This golden Agave attenuata was gorgeous. I wish they would have had a small one for sale. |
 |
| An oddity |
My sister and I did a bunch of shopping. Below is my loot.
 |
| The big fern is Arachnoides simplicior 'Variegata'. | |
 |
| From left to right, two double primrose plants, Dryopteris 'Parsley' (dormant), Chiastrophyllum oppositifolium 'Jim's Pride', Variegated Red-Veined Sorrel, Scutellaria 'Greg Starr', Iris reticulata 'Purple Gem', Saxifraga stoloniferum 'Harvest Moon', Carex 'Sparkler', Tulbaghia natalensis and Parahebe olsonii. |
And finally,
 |
| Ribes speciosum 'Rana Creek' (Now I have two. Notice the thorns. It will go at the back of the border.) |
Well, it's not quite spring yet but I say, who cares?
Bring it on! I'm ready to putter.
How about you?
