Award-winning author Kathleen Alcalá lives on Bainbridge Island. The current conditions have given her a White Garden effect that outdoes Vita Sackville-West's at Sissinghurst. What is it with authors and white gardens?
Bainbridge Island is due west of Seattle, a 30 minute ferry ride across Puget Sound. Kathleen's garden has unusual but lovely amounts of snow for this Zone 8 area. We'll look at it again in the spring, I hope.
Pearl is not a winter-sports enthusiast. Kathleen says Pearl is concentrating all her energy on trying to make the snow go away.
I'm with Pearl, go away snow so we can see the lovely garden! I see we are the same zone although our climates are different, very little snow here, but yes to summer droughts! And Henry Mitchell was brilliant! :-)
Welcome Frances! Kathleen, your public is clamoring for a Spring Garden Tour--how about it? We won't tell Pearl that Henry Mitchell was a hound man, not a cat man.
