Iris tenax May 2009
Iris macrosiphon May 2009
Erythronium oregonum March 2010
Lithocarpus densiflorus echinoides May 2009
This small garden features perennials from Washington, Oregon & California. It started with 8 Pacific Coast Native Iris: 3 succeeded. At the center of the garden Arctostaphylos ‘Monica’ grows in a large earthen pot. Allium & Iris encircle it. Lilies grow in the open area beyond. Lithocarpus densiflorus echinoides waits in back, growing slowly. After 5 years, it is 2 feet tall. Heuchera micrantha & Tellima grandiflora linger under a tall, spreading Mahonia aquifolium. Fragaria vesca spread quickly throughout. The garden was started in 2004, replacing the lower half of the Rock Garden. Spanish Narcissus bulbocodium remained in place. Japanese Ajuga reptans has crept into the garden now. I don't want to kick it out. There is also the Australian Pratia pedunculata that I cannot stop.
