Today we pick back up with our visit to the Bellevue Botanical Garden as we're walking into the famed perennial border... The Datisca cannabina (aka false hemp) is always a show-stopper for me. That's it above, in the distance, and again below. And here, backed by a soft blue sky. One of the many Cephalotaxus harringtonii (aka Japanese plum-yew) that caught my eye. Of course the variegated chestnut is no slacker in the foliage department either. Semi-wide shot with nolina... Nolina hibernica 'La Siberica' that is. I seemed to be captivated by cryptomeria on this trip, stopping to take photos here and of several at the Kubota Garden the next day. I'm always mesmerized by a fuzzy verbascum. Crinum 'Cecil Houdyshel' And again, masked by blooms of a nearby grass. Verbena And a rodgersia looking fabulous so late in the year, it must get a lot of water. These small, protective cages were all around the garden. They remind me of a project in Lorene Edwards-Forkner's A Handmade Garden, I wonder if she held a workshop at the garden? I can be charmed by a dark, late-season hydrangea bloom. Darnit! The Northwest Perennial Alliance has a propagation exhibit and there are usually plants for sale. It wasn't open when I was there, maybe a COVID thing? (this scene was behind a closed door, photo taken through the glass). There are parts of the garden left natural and wild. I found this old hebe to be quite a looker. Lysimachia paridiformis var. stenophylla And finally, the fern garden... I was rather taken with this one, as it was forming a short trunk. Online requests for ID resulted in the names Polystichum polyblepharum, Polystichum x dycei, and Dryopteris cycadina—with Polystichum polyblepharum emerging as the likely winner. I bent to take a photo of the turkey tails, but then noticed there was a fern frond in shadow. And now I'm looking for a hollow trunk in which to plant a few ferns. Onoclea sensibilis, the sensitive fern. Here's another plant whose ID I wondered about. Perhaps a rhododendron? And here's our last photo of the visit, definitely a rhododendron, but I couldn't tell you which one.
