A Few Snaps from Cistus Nursery

Here are a few shots from Cistus Nursery—a very cool place, definitely worth visiting anytime you are at Sauvie. They've got lots of mediterranean, southern hemisphere, and hardy tropical plants that seem to do well in our area. There are a few (wish there were more) very nice photos in the design section of their site.

The entrance drive is a rich little journey.

Madrone and manzanita. Dreamy.

Great texture and details on this clematis. It had buds, blossoms, and fuzzy seed pods.

Monkey Puzzle Tree, or Auracaria araucana. A spectacular ancient species.
