Nikki. Thanks !! I don't think there is ever a bad time to visit them there is so many different plants to see in there gardens should always be something new coming on but if you wait till TB's are blooming the Peonies are at the same time and they have a wonderful selection of those also.

Bonnie.. I am really looking forward to it as well as of a week ago when I could get in it the plants looked good still lot's of green and that's a good sign but still finding some plants laying in the rows from the deer. Hopefully in April we will be living there and I can fight back The field is going to grow quickly I stopped by the greenhouse today to water seedlings and found a couple hundred up already it's fun to see the next group starting to stick out of the dirt in the pots.

Sherry.. Thanks you would enjoy a trip to Oregon in May it is after your bloom season and there are many awesome gardens in the Salem area. Santa Cruz is special also the scenery driving there along the Highway with all the conifers and redwoods is awesome, the ocean is close by and I'm guessing within a few miles from you is some of the best Iris available anywhere and a equally impressive Rose collection

Mary Ann.. I am the same way but there much easier to take care of in mass quantities when there in a field setting because you can get a tractor and other equipment in there to help with the work load. The path's are really neat I'm not sure how Thomas keeps up with the maintenance of it all there is a incredible amount of work that goes into maintaining that place

Tom.. I don't have any Hosta's either no shade gardens here but I sure enjoyed the ones at Mid American.. I didn't realize how many different colors and patterns they come in and they look really good tucked under all the different trees there.

Marilyn.. Thank You and glad your back. That one is a favorite, and I thought I had something special when it 1st bloomed.. can't wait to see the rest of the (Just Witchery) kids bloom this year hopefully there are more like it in whites and pinks

Carl.. Wow blooming in February that's awesome and I agree start the bloom time 2016 thread when they start coming on.

Lucy..We are months away as well more snow tomorrow but the weekend will be nice Highs in the 50's and I know were on the downward slide.
