Summer to Fall...

With the lovely warm days of summer ending, I see the brilliant colors of Fall emerging quickly. Fall provides us with cooler days filled with an ever changing palate of the brilliance of a new season. Classic and scenic beauty of nature.

The magnificent Magnolia Soulangeana...

This is the magnificent Magnolia Soulangeana...spring blooms in a soft pink, pastel purple color. Small green leaves with the blooms turn into large lush green leaves later, after the bloom is finished. These trees grow to be very large and need room to grow more. A very special addition to any garden...photo: from the garden of Kari Scott @ kariscottmusic.blogspot.com

Beautiful parks and gardens in the Pacific Northwest...

The summers in the Pacific Northwest offer some of the best of the best in our parks and gardens. So many are only a minimal cost or free. The scents and colorful beauty are a true delight for the senses. We are so happy to have 3 or 4 months to enjoy the great blooms in nature!
