Did you attend the Darke 'lessons from 25 years' program?<br /><br />It may have been 2015; will poke around other Portland garden blogs to see if anyone had a report-back.

The dictionary didn't help clarify Andrew's view of the flowers, providing 2 definitions: 1) a painful localized bacterial infection (yuck!) and 2) a mythical gemstone said to emit light in total darkness (just what we all need to start this year!). As those look like parrot tulips that will open in glorious color, I'm going with the second definition.Kris Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07097260283693156795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-35088581714907941962017-01-02T10:52:32.722-08:002017-01-02T10:52:32.722-08:00Man..you could be a floral designer.
