Bye Bye Bambi!

Remember this handsome fella?

I dug him out of a forest of vinca in a backyard in SE Portland. Since then, he's been the reigning king of the shop. I'm here to report that he has found a new home.

Yesterday, his new owner put him lovingly in the back of a Subaru. He looks like he's trying to see through the window...Don'tcha think? Happy trails, Bambi!

The Grapes of Trash

Spotted this fabulous outdoor fruit arrangement the other day. I am always drawn to resin grapes. I usually buy them and then have no idea what to do with them. But look what some clever person did...He/She added a little garden bling to a colorless, flowerless Portland winter. Brilliant!

There's a naked man in my garden!

Recently, a couple of members of my girl posse presented me with my newest garden friend. They found David in the trash. (!) He had been in some sort of terrible accident; missing arm, broken leg, etc. but my girls just knew I would have him and hold him as long as we both shall live. And so David was lovingly ~ and modestly ~ placed in the rock garden just behind the Cape Fuchsia.
Girls, when I say one gal's trash is another gal's treasure...I mean it!
