Celebrate Shelby!!
This beautiful bridal bouquet was created by Erik for a wedding this last weekend. Shelby carried a bouquet of eggplant calla lilies, white calla lilies, deep luscious lisianthus, purple aranda orchids, stephanotis and seeded eucalyptus. This combination was truly stunning! My my, purple is coming back into trend again!
Below is her stunning toss bouquet…a bit of whimsy was added with cascading orchids and wire beading…Fun!
Congratulations Panthers - 2010!
This past weekend we had the glorious and fun job of creating flowers for Washougal High School’s 2010 Graduates! This year we decided to create a panther paw of flowers surrounded by tropical foliages and stunning ‘Orange Unique’ roses in a vegetative design style! It was great fun to create and stunning for our future of Washougal…GO PANTHERS!
Mom’s Day…for all she does for you!
Honor your Mom with flowers this holiday. After all, there is only one gal in your life that protected you when you needed it the most!

This month we are featuring a local artist with all the creative juices and energy to fit right in among our crowd!
Mike Meyer…a local earth-friendly garden artist!
Mike Meyer starting making birdhouses and bird feeders as gifts for family and friends. He fell in love with the creative process and in 2000, along with his equally talented wife Barbara, formed Earth Tones. They have been selling their unique art work at the Vancouver Farmer’s Market ever since.
In 2003, Mike was juried into Cracked Pots, an organization dedicated to recycling and the art created from recycled materials. You can see his garden art every year at the annual Cracked Pots Garden Art Show held at McMenamins Edgefield (Troutdale, Oregon), in July.
Mike and Barbara use everything from tin cans, bottles and garden hoses to CD’s, rope and fabric in their, earth friendly, recycled and unique creations. They just finished a successful Yard, Garden and Patio Show at the Oregon Convention Center. For more information…give them a call 360.256.2392
Big Bench BirdhouseEvery once in a while you hit the jackpot. The treated 2×2 4 foot cedar pots used to create this structure were leftovers from a large construction site. When my good friend asked if I wanted them I had no idea he would bring me a pallet full. There must have been a hundred of them! I often wonder how chemically treated lumber is disposed of? -Mike $400 with birdhouse…can be sold separately…please inquire
