The absolute best guide to all things happening horticulturally in the
Pacific Northwest is a book by Stephanie Feeney: The Northwest Gardeners
Resource Directory available for quick order on-line at
http://www.cedarcroft-press.com. She has visited every nursery and festival
and all other things Hort. related over the last serveral years, but the
book is updated EVERY year so everything is current. I HIGHLY recommend you
obtain one.
I'd list my favorites, but the list would be well over 60 and if you'd
really like me to do so, I will. Tell me your plant interests and more or
less your route and we'll go from there.
