Our Flower Gardens Part Four

There seems to be no end to taking pictures of flowers in our yard.  My wife and I have eight different flower gardens.


All are pretty good size.  Plus, we have potted plants, hanging baskets all over. There seems to be no end to the planting, watering and the weeding.



It helps keep everybody young.  We love the rewards...the beauty of it all, until all the flowers die out for the year and we go back to the mundane.



The fist photo is of one of our early dahlias...the rest don't come in until late summer.

Swan Island Dahlias

One of those very special and beautiful places in Oregon is the “Swan Island Dahlia Farm”. It’s right next to, maybe, heaven for flower lovers. And, it’s not even close to Swan Island (which is in Portland)….it's in Canby, Oregon which is way south of PDX.

It has to be the Dahlia Capitol of the World. If there are bigger and, most importantly, better Dahlia farms, I have no idea where they are.
