" 2016 was another wonderful year for Pacific NW gardener . I live on an island in Puget Sound and garden on a small property in a zona 8 climate where I have been garden for many decades . I happily do mostly shade gardening as the jumbo Fir tree diagram have tardily blocked out a slew of the sun and change the direction of my horticulture . I love the wide multifariousness of spook industrial plant and the challenge of receive the right industrial plant combination based on color and textural contrasts . Happy Fall to all . "
