Chickadee Gardens

  A frosty morning at work last week had me scrambling to take as many photos as possible before it melted. The beauty of snow and frost has not lasted long this winter. Not that I'm complaining. But it is really lovely on Sauvie Island, a rather bucolic and agricultural portion of the greater Portland area. That  Cistus Nursery  is here makes me feel very lucky. This post is just for visual fun as I don't have identifications for many of these plants in Sean and Preston's garden, but I hope you enjoy them all the same. Here then is a look at my place of employment on a rather frosty February morning: Muhlenbergia dubia , very much like my favorite  Muhlenbergia rigens . This is at the front of the path and is stunning in just about all seasons.
