Way back in 2018, the folks running the show at the Hoffman Wonder Garden decided on a mission: to put the manzanitas back in Manzanita. Clearly, the plants thrived in this climate, flowered WAY before most other garden plants, and had singularly GORGEOUS bark.
Today, 7 years later, the WG has sold @750 namesake shrubs to the wider community during its spring and fall plant sales. Yay!
Tomorrow, at the WG PLANT SALE, we’re selling l @50 more! Here’s the line-up:
‘Martha Ewan’, a fab & flawless groundcover form that was discovered growing on Mrs Ewan’s grave here in Nehalem…
‘John Dourley’ and ‘White Lanterns’, both lovely smaller shrubs that top out at 3’…
‘Lester Rowntree’ and ‘Warren Roberts’, 4’ high and a generous 8’ wide…
‘Gray Leaf Form’, super pretty with distinct foliage, ultimately 5’x5’…
And coming in at an impressive 7’x7’, the handsome and fast growing ’Sentinel’.
SEE YOU AT THE WONDER GARDEN TOMORROW, SEPT 20, 10-12PM!!!
