As a local resident I would like to visit the Northwest Research Garden and understand that it is open periodically. Our Garden Club visited prior to Herronswood closing and becoming a research garden. Do you have information on this? Thankyou for you very informative article.

Thanks for taking me back to our visit in July when Heronswood was open to the public….I’ll never forget that trip…Georgetown, TX

Thanks – we are not exactly at our most extravagant showy best here in the NW at this time of year, but it is a good time for us too, unless our November rain hose delivers off the Pacific without interruption, as it has the past 2 weeks! Hope you’ll return before too long to watch the lovely early unfolding of spring.

Thanks for the posting.

You should have been here this past week or so, and the rain you looked for at Kingston would have been VERY evident. We are awash in water and the same for snow in the Olympics and Cascades. Great news for the skiers and for next spring’s blooming.

Delighted to see you back in the northwest, enjoying the best COLOR we’ve seen in the past decade around the sound; truly splendid!
I’m reminded of the work of Dan and Robert with countless others creating one of the truly beautifully informed gardens of north America. We truly miss you and your smiling visages purveying nature’s abundance in wondrous clarity.
Please come home to the northwest more often.

Wow. Thank you for a peaceful thought in the midst of a chaotic morning at my house. I felt like I was walking beside you, and I miss visiting Washington even more now. Thank you.
