Rhododendron

Craigslist can be such a wonderful thing. Today I responded to a “you-dig-you-haul” ad which was just three blocks away from my house. What a treat! I’ve been dreaming about a Rhododendron (Washington State’s tree) for so long, and today I got a one-meter tall plant!

Little by little, my garden is taking shape. The tulips and narcissus are not out yet, but the “surprise” irises and the orange irises (both also from Craigslist) are adapting well to their new surroundings. The potager built in the “Square Foot Gardening” fashion is also coming about.

This weekend, I’ll be attending the Northwest Flower & Garden Show and will get a ton of ideas for this coming season :)
