Tropical Escape

Owner::   Nigela
This is a beautiful oasis I created out of a raw hill. I hired a backhoe to terrace the property and built two retaining walls with walking paths on each level. It contains everything from tropical bananas to fruit and vegetables. A lot of inspiriation came from attending the Northwest Flower and Garden show to really produce a wonderful retreat. My love of flora and fauna led me to more exotic plants and true adventures in meeting people who had such exuberance in finding the unusual. Alas, I have moved on and miss the oasis but now get to create an entirely different one. So it goes........

It is terraced with walkways on the 2 levels that a wheel barrow fits on. Amazingly easy to maintain because it is so packed with plants that weeds are minimal except the early spring weed before everthing pops up.
