Under the Solano Sun
Seasonal observations by UC Master Gardeners of Solano County
There's a verse in a song that starts off like this, It's a wondrous time in spring, when all the trees are budding, the birds begin to sing, the flowers start their blooming Those are exactly what I have been observing.
Themed Plant Collections in 8 Glasshouses INCREDIBLE! That was my first thought at seeing the Glasshouse Complex at the Queen Sirikit Botanic Garden. Which boasts 8 glasshouses, each housing captivating themed plant collections.
A native groundcover with brilliant, red, trumpet-shaped flowers? Yes, please! When we re-landscaped our backyard a few years ago, the landscaper suggested a California fuchsia, Epilobium 'Everett's Choice,' as a groundcover in a few locations.
Part 1 BREATHTAKING would be the word I used for Queen Sirikit Botanic Garden which was one of our destinations during our Thailand Vacation. Over 2,500 acres, this garden is situated at the edge of the Doi Suthep-Pui National Park in Chaing Mai.
