Apparently next March, with the photos that were taken this past May at and just after the Native Plant Society garden tour. A freelance writer showed up at the tour and asked to take picture, which we of course said yes to, cuz why not? He introduced himself with his name but didn’t say that he was a writer and also didn’t say he was tentatively representing Sunset. Apparently he sent the photos to Sunset that day to see if they were interested in our garden, because he was, that’s the reason he took them. Then a local freelance photographer buddy of his (whose native plant ID book we now have) wanted to do the piece, which we were by that time aware of, so he asked if HE could come out and take pix, so we said sure, cuz why not? But then Sunset contacted us shortly after and asked if ANOTHER photographer could come out. He was here for two half days, because it got too sunny on the one day. We had so many great flowers, and sooooooo many bees, that’s what first impressed the writer. We had the first showing of Beargrass, the tall and gorgeous White Camas, and the Yellow Desert Parsley, to name a few). Anyway, this year Seattle Times, next year Sunset!!
