Katie, thanks for the tips. Heronswood was always among my favorite destinations when visiting Washington before moving north. It's such a shame that Burpee decided to close it down. I'm very familiar with Dunn Gardens where I've been a docent for a couple of years. I hope to be there this Sunday for the annual winter snowdrop stroll.

I'll check out the garden tours in last April's and July's postings. It's always so much fun to see what others are doing in their gardens. One of my favorite things to do is nose around other people's gardens through the Northwest Perennial Alliance open gardens program. This year, for the first time, I've added my garden to the list.

I'm on 94th Street, so not far from your old stomping grounds. The blocks up here in the north end of Wedgwood are double-sized, so we have somewhat larger lots than are typical for the area. I've got about a quarter of an acre, which is still quite small, but a bit roomier than many Seattle gardens.
