While I'm not quite ready to pull out everything in my garden and replace it with evergreens, the all season structure and beauty of these marvelous plants is very useful!

For ideas on how to use conifers and to learn more about them, the American Conifer Society is a great resource and has a very active group in the PNW. You can find them on the web and also on Facebook.<br /><br />Nice post, thanks!<br /><br />SaraForm and Foliagehttp://formandfoliage.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6598416695566325151.post-29130998879808301632013-03-09T20:21:18.400-08:002013-03-09T20:21:18.400-08:00It's always fun to read your blog!

I can't believe I saw them in person and didn't even realize what they were!<br /><br />Thanks for the tip, I'll post lots of pictures of Japanese Maples when they leaf out just for you! Isn't it funny that many of us plant people desire what really doesn't want to grow in our areas? For years after moving here from Alaska, I was simply in awe of the amazing variety of plants that are hardy here (zone 3 to 8 is a big leap;) now I lust after arid plants and zone 9 stuff.

In my hometown of Houston agaves and pine trees grow in the same yard. Even more of a payback are the thriving Japanese Maples which I love but cannot grow here.<br /><br />It's always a challenge to reconcile the garden in your mind with reality.
