Sorticulture 2006



Sorticulture is our county's largest garden festival, and in a region as garden-obsessed as Western Washington, that's kinda saying something! We had a nice stroll through the nursery booths, taking in roses, dahlias, and native perennials, then spent a little time listening to a live jazz band while surrounded by fabulously designed planters like the one in the photo above.

It was hard not to come home with new finds, but interesting just to see the people who turned out. And not just people:

I didn't take many pictures, but if you want to see more, take a look at this blog, which features fabulous photos of last year's festival.

Looks like a lot of fun! It reminded me that this is the season for great outdoor events! I still haven't gotten used to the idea that summer is already here!
