Here we are. It was so good to see Julia and Greg again. A year is way to long.


Here is Cliff calming the crying babies. I didn't get a photo of them before he started playing to them. It was instantaneous silence. The mom and dad were so thrilled. The babies were mesmerized.


This was such a fun booth. They love their cactus and other succulents. What a pleasure it was visiting with the owners.





More to come.

Nice picture of the four of you! Greg, love the ATP shirt!! Cliff sure comes prepared when he goes on a venture, doesn't he. I'm sure the parents of those kids were thrilled.

All those beautiful succulents make me drool.

Here's a few of mine. Nice to meet the very talented Cliff.
Cotton Candy Hellebore




Cliff like this one so much was taking coat of to get in..

This last one was lovely

great stuff ,looked like you had fun...

We really did have fun!! Thanks @webesemps for the great ATP t shirt!! First time I wore it for an ATP "event"
Cheers

for the photos and comments, BUT did you buy anything? Lynn? Julia? Greg?
I liked the photo of the four of you all and the last photo of Julia's of the succulent planting with the echeverias/sedum/grass.
Greg, you look good in the shirt. Did anybody think you had a booth at the show?

That tub does look very inviting!

@springcolor do you grow Hellebore? Wish I had a growing area suitable for them because I love em.

I did not buy anything. I just got orders from Wild Ginger Farm and Edelweiss, so I had to be good at the Home and Garden Show.
They really didn't have but a few plant vendors at this show.

But let me tell you what I found out about the show in Canby that all of us will be going to.
Ers (Edelweiss) said that it is most likely the largest gathering of nurseries and plant sales in the United States.

This was such a cozy garden sitting area. Don't expect something like this at my place when you come. Although I would love to have it.




I found the blooms of this Scillia peruviana beautiful and interesting.

Chris, Yes I grow quite a few hellebore as I love them too. They are just starting to bloom around here. Now if the rain would stop I could go get a few pictures. The hellebore at this show were gorgeous.

Funny story about this show. Portland puts on a few of these shows and as soon as we drove into the parking lot I new this was not the one I went to last year. It was a lovely show but more on hardscapes and home items. Hence the title Home and Garden and Not Garden and Patio. The one next weekend is the one I wanted to go to. In my defense the web site of this show had a picture of one of last years garden in the upper left corner. Oh well, I will investigate the web sites extensively next year. It was good to see Lynn and Cliff and Greg. I will not be driving 4 hours next weekend to see the show but looking forward to the Canby day. It sounds so exciting.

I bought 3 succulents. I will get a picture later today.

Yes it wasn't the show we were expecting, but it was still fun!! I only bought a couple of plants. (2inch pots)
Julia and I did however go into Portland and went to a few nurseries, I bought some semps (ones to fill in, where I had die offs last fall) so I bought 'Soft Line', 'Koko Flanel' and a new one for me 'Pacifici Zoftic' No photos, its rainy out and I'm lazy haha!

No one should trust me I'm blonde you know!!! and some gray so that's not good either.

Ahh, but such a wonderful blonde/grey.
Just had to share this terrarium. Can you see the tiny blue frog?

Sure can't miss that. That's cool. Tell the story of this siting!!

Eyeball is scary...

I wouldn't even have thought of it as an eyeball if you hadn't said anything Bev. But I will now! That frog sure is a pretty blue.

Bev you are so funny. It is a blown glass frog house.

Julia, what sitting?

I find it difficult to understand how something alive can have skin with such an intense blue color.

Sorry sighting, not sitting! Was that in a pet store?

I do have 1 special plant that I bought among several
its a mini delosperma! its as tall as its going to be but will spread out.
its in a 3 inch pot

Cheers

Interesting, Greg, that mini delosperma. Which is it? It's hard to find a delo that stays small in leaf and height.

Pretty pretty
