Ricks yard, aka the spring garden get together

lynnsherbs
18 years ago

Julie and I made the trip to Rick's (leftwoods) yard in St. Boni yesterday. It is probably the most unique yard I've seen with lots and lots of trees, and, despite that, lots of sun! 3 or 4 pussywillows from a little petite thing to black to a monster asian one! Lots of conifers, false cypress, variegations, golden foliage, contorted willows....You guys have GOT to see this! It really is worth the trip! See you in June and THANKS again Rick and Julie!
