2020-2021 INTRODUCTION

Well what else can we say but 2020 WOW!!!!!! I have been writing this introduction for over 25 years and there has always been something in the world to talk about. There was the year right while I was writing the introduction, Hurricane Katrina hit and destroyed the gulf; there was September 11, 2001 terrorist attack; and there was the 2008 banking collapse of the economy that threatened the country. All of these events took place right while I was writing the introduction. We have also have many personal challenges to the family over the years. With all that being said, 2020 may be the strangest yet. We have a global pandemic, race relations that are starting to rival 1968, and I fear we are coming up on a political struggle like the country has never seen before in November.

So let’s talk about how all of this affects us here at the nursery this coming year. When the pandemic hit we were having somewhat slow sales for the fall and early spring. Then when the stay at home orders hit our business actually really picked up. This increase helped us bridge the loss of 4-5 spring plant sales we would normally go to each spring that were all canceled. We also had to account for the loss of in-person sales here at the nursery. We want to thank all of you who placed orders this spring. Those orders really helped us get through the crazy spring. As for this coming year we would like to ask for your continued support because we fear the continued loss of in-person sales for the foreseeable future. We are open year round from 9-5 Wednesday through Saturday and what better place to socially distance than a walk around the garden and nursery.

Now for our personal catch up section. It has been a difficult spring for Marj. In April she fell and fractured her left shoulder, then on the 4th of July she fell and fractured her left femur. Both of these took place during the heat of the pandemic so we were not able to visit her in the hospital or in the rehabilitation facility. She is home now and we are hoping with some modifications to avoid another fall. Pierce is working at a treatment center for children with serious emotional and behavioral issues. He is working the graveyard shift and is past ready to switch to another shift. He is not enjoying being a creature of the night. He has just enrolled in school and is working toward a microbiology degree. Dawn has had a crazy year in education, trying to do speech therapy remotely or online is a difficult task. The plans for this school year are still in flux and so she has had to adjust on the fly for this year. Roger is doing well and we are restocked from the rush of orders this spring. Roger has been able to find some new and exciting plants to share with all of you. As for me, I am still making progress on the health problems from last year and have been able to resume everything I was able to do before getting sick. We purchased a new 16-foot whitewater raft in the last couple months and have been able to enjoy some great river trips. I am still assembling gear for the raft and look forward to many river camping trips in the future. We were able to purchase the raft because there has been no fishing trips to Alaska and no horse shows for Dawn this year.

We do have an exciting opportunity this coming February. We will be open February 20 and 27 in conjunction with Northwest Garden Nursery for their spring hellebore sale. We will both be open and we will have most of the same selections. Both display gardens will be open to tour as well. So if you want to avoid the crowd and not face the early sold out plants please consider visiting us.

We have ordered many more hellebores from Ernie and Marietta O’Byrne with their agreement that we should be open together to spread out the crowd during their open houses. So please visit both gardens and see the selections available. Please visit Northwest Garden Nursery’s website for photos. We have also expanded our selections of ferns, rhododendrons and hamamellis this year and are very excited about the new selections.

We have also been busy with our other new adventure. Some of you may know we are planting Hazelnut trees for nut production. We are in our 4th year and the first 14 acres are really starting to look like trees. We will plant the final 8 acres this fall bringing our total to 35 acres, roughly 4100 trees in total! That is a lot of pruning and maintenance. We are anticipating or first crop next year and hope to be in real production in 3-4 years. When complete we should produce between 100,000 and 125,000 pounds of nuts a year.

To close, we hope all of you are well and let’s hope that 2021 is a way better year for all of us! Please feel free to visit the nursery as we are here and open and we are set up for proper social distancing. We ask all of you to continue to support small businesses like ours. With your support we can continue to stay open and bring you the goods and services only small businesses can provide.

We can’t make this operation work without the help of some great people. Dianna Learner for proofing the catalog, Lisa Seabright for her help in the office and formatting the catalog. We would be lost without our constant helper and great neighbor Wayne Headlee.

P.S. Well when we thought 2020 had showed us it’s hand we got hit with another curve ball. If you are wondering why the catalog is a little later this year we were hit with the Holiday Farm Fire. We were warned that a once in a hundred year wind event was headed to western Oregon on September, 8. Upriver from us a power line sparked a fire with 50 mph down canyon winds and created a firestorm like nobody in this area ever even dreamed was possible. At one point the fire was advancing at 30 mph down the McKenzie River incinerating everything in its path. We were placed under evacuation order and had to be ready to leave. We lost power for 7 days and had to evacuate the horses just to be safe. As of today, around 750 homes above us on the river have been lost and the highway is severely damaged with no estimates of when it might open to the east of us. Another fire north of us in Marion County is even bigger and the estimate there is that 80-100 thousand trees will need to be removed to make the highway passable. We are anticipating similar results upriver from us. We are fine now, the fire never got near enough to directly threaten us. We are under severe smoke with the worst air quality in the world! We were operating on generators for seven days and were able to keep all the plants watered. Thank you for all the well wishes, we had almost a hundred emails waiting when we got the power to the office back. I know we shouldn’t make a political statement but climate change is very real especially for those of us living on a coast. The ocean is sick and the weather it is generating is getting more severe every year. Please take climate change seriously and help in your own way to address this challenge, the future depends on action now.

JAPONICA 'UNRYU' - This camellia grows upright to possibly 8'. The foliage is typical C. japonica and the flowers are light red in early spring. However the main reason to grow C. j. 'Unryu' is for the contorted stems. The stems twist at 45° angles, which makes an interesting form. 1 gal. $ 32.00 C. JAPONICA ‘VARIEGATA’- This red flowered camellia has small flowers. The main reason for growing C. j. ‘Variegata’ is its glossy deep green and yellow leaves. Our original plant is 3-4’ tall after many years. Well worth growing for foliage alone. 1 gal. $ 42.00

C. ‘KOREAN FIRE’- Has a fairly small single vibrant red flower in March. The stamens are bright yellow. 1 gal. $ 30.00 C. ‘KUJAKU TSUBAKI’- The peacock or weeping camellia is a really fun plant.

C. ‘NIGHT RIDER’- Only a few small plants this year. This slow growing camellia is wonderful. Every part of the plant is maroon. The new growth is dark purple.

Makes an interesting plant even when there aren’t any leaves. 1 gal. $ 50.00 CATALPA

C. BIGNONIOIDES ‘AUREA’- The usual catalpa can be a large park tree. But, this species can be kept small by hard pruning in spring. Our plant gets to 15’each fall. The bright golden leaves get large because of the hard prune. Quite a show-stopper each summer. 1 gal. $ 32.00 CEDRUS C. ATLANTICA ‘HILLIER’S HB’- is a flat topped Atlantic cedar that will stay very small. The stems slightly weep and make an attractive small shrub. 1 gal. $ 38.00 C.

LAWSONIANA ‘WISSELS SAGUARO’ - This beautiful conifer looks like a dark green saguaro cactus. It will grow outside the desert and be a real showstopper in the garden.

The original 15 year old plant is 12’x 3’. This plant makes a nice addition to the small garden. It is a narrow plant with some height. Flowers are similar size to S. pseudo. ‘Ballet’ but, a much narrower tree; also from plantsman, Crispin Silva. 1 gal. $ 75.00

S. PSEUDOCAMELLIA ‘SKYWARD’- is an upright 20’ x 10’ tree that will go in a much narrower space. Typical white flowers in summer. Great fall foliage and bark year round. This is a selection made by Crispin Silva that has a good eye for interesting plants. 1 gal. $ 85.00

JAPONICA 'FRAGRANT FOUNTAIN'- P.P.A.F.- We have had Styrax japonica 'Carillon' for many years and it's a beautiful small tree. The only problem is our 30-year old plant is 12' X 12'. So it takes up a lot of room in a small garden, however beautiful it is. This excellent plant will grow upright with a terminal leader; but all the stems are strongly weeping. We have seen trees that are less then 2' wide. The flowers are the typical white stars in May and June. We only have a small supply available. 2 gal. $ 80.00 SYCOPSIS S. SINENSIS ‘NARROW LEAF’- The narrow foliage is ½ x 3” and is deep green. Will make a handsome shrub with striking foliage and small red flowers.

GARDEN COACHING OPPORTUNITYRoger has been offering coaching services to those who want assistance with their gardens. This service comes with a 10% discount on all plants purchased for the next month after the visit. Roger will offer design ideas and counseling along with suggestions on what plants will work best in your particular situation. He can also perform plant identi cation for those plants already in your landscape. Each visit will be followed by a written list of instructions and he will always be available for follow up here at the nursery.

The following is provided graciously by one of his current clients.

“Inviting Roger into our garden to be a ‘garden coach’ was one of our best horticultural investments. He has an almost endless amount of information regarding plant growth and habit. His depth and knowledge on what to plant where, why, when and how was a great help to us. And, perhaps most important, it was wonderful fun. A visit from Roger would leave us quite excited about new plant possibilities. In a few words and wild hand gestures, he could turn an ugly shady corner bed into a colorful hydrangea planting that would be beautiful and hide the shed wall and fence. We will continue to use the garden coach service and we know that each visit from Roger will be enjoyable and full of new information.”

Sincerely, Nancy Beck

If you are interested in Roger’s services please contact us and we have a brochure explaining all the details. Also feel free to call and talk to Roger anytime and he can set up a visit.

TERMS, PLANTS, PRICING AND SHIPPING: We really care about our plants customers and pricing. So the following is to help explain some of the changes for this coming season. Plants: Most are cuttings grown from our stock so we know the correct variety. We have grown them at least a year and list varieties in the catalog available at press time and try to indicate if only a few are available. The plants are evaluated as to hardiness, beautiful flowers, foliage, fruit, etc. The plants are taken out of the containers and tied into plastic bags, then secured into the boxes. We do not ship bare root plants. Price: It is a difficult decision, so we try to be fair so not only the wealthy can afford them (we are collectors too). The availability, propagation, container growing, as well as nursery costs must come into play. Since shipping costs have risen drastically over the last few years and the boxes for our plants are much larger than other nurseries and therefore much more expensive. We are adjusting our shipping charges after more than 30 years. The following table will be used to calculate our shipping rates. Our minimum has raised but on the larger orders it will work out to less than in the past in many cases. Minimum shipping charge will now be: $15.00 $ 0 to $ 25.00 $ 15.00 $ 25.00 to $ 75.00 $ 22.00 $ 75.00 to $ 150.00 $ 34.00 $ 150.00 to $ 300.00 $ 65.00 $ 300.00 to $ 500.00 $145.00 Plants are guaranteed true to name and are carefully selected quality plants. Our plants are regularly inspected by the Oregon Agriculture Department. Since we cannot control planting or growing conditions after shipment we cannot be responsible for loss. We can supply a wholesale catalog upon request to nurseries and landscapers.
