If picture #4 does not get people to attend then nothing will. (Except the miles from the midwest or east)

What is the Ginkgo on standard in picture #6?

I think that photo is from Dave's garden in Shawnee, KS - his handle is davesconifers. Dave if you read this could you confirm and ID?

Sara

Yep.. my photo.

I kind of wondered how it migrated to Quarryhill Botanical Gardens but that's OK. I think in a round about way I know how it got there.

That photo is a good 3 years old.

I will invite any of you coming through the Midwest on your way to the ACS Western Regional to stop by.

Im sure Dave meant pungens on ' St.Mary's Broom'.

Dave it was in my Photobucket album, not in the Quarryhill album. I think it goes back to when I was trying to get those Ginkgo photos in higher resolution and you told me to try pulling them off your Photobucket page. Baxz clicked through the Quarryhill flyer (which was on Photobucket) to the rest of my album.

Not exactly going viral!

And please ID the Ginkgo as now I have forgotten - is it 'Jade Butterflies'?

Sara

Sara...it is 'Jade Butterflies'. The other Ginkgo to left is 'WB'.

Dave

Dave the 'Jade Butterflies' is beautifully pruned, nice job. Mine is tiny - I can't wait till it gets a bit of size on it.

Sara

Thanks. Inspiring bed.
