LECTURE:
Join Dan Hinkley, Heronswood's co-founder and Garden Director, for another of his memorable lectures on December 6 in the Port Gamble S'Klallam House of Knowledge. The topic of this winter's lecture will be "Magic and Miracle: The Subtle and Profound Beauty of the Plants at Heronswood."
A maple tree may be entirely a male one year, entirely female the next, and represent both sexes the following year! Dan will introduce you to some of the natural world's strange and wonderful characters on a visual tour of some of his favorite plants in the ever-growing collection at Heronswood Garden, while discussing some of their unique characteristics, including ornamental attributes, morphological features, pollination strategies, or seed dispersal mechanics.
RARE PLANT SALE TOO!
Magnolias from Vietnam, Helwingias and Disporums from China, Drimys and Raphithamnus from Chile plus more! All representing plants grown from Dan Hinkley's collection work, these rarities will be offered on Dec 6th ONLY at extraordinarily low prices, from $3 to $8. They are all hardy and will make distinctive and beautiful hedging and/or specimens for landscape as well as stocking stuffers for your favorite gardeners! ALL PROCEEDS GO TO HERONSWOOD'S RENOVATION. Bring cash, checks, credit cards, generosity and lots of space in your trunks to carry them home. All sales final.
Come and learn a bit about the mystery surrounding many of the plants you are already growing in your garden, or discover a few you will want to include in the near future. And, snap up some amazing rare plants to take home with you!
