"A planted place" is how American garden designer Louise Beebe Wilder (1878-1938) defined a garden. I think it is the best and most concise description I've come across. This blog is focused on my own small garden in Vancouver, Canada, but the title allows me to include other gardens and plants from time to time if I find them interesting.

Bushland flowers
A couple of weeks ago we went on a leisurely hike with a local bushwalking group. The track we followed was through fairly dense vegetation, much of it in flower in this mid-spring season, offering an opportunity to learn more about Australian native plants. The yellow-flowering shrubs are Dillwynia floribunda, common name Egg-and-Bacon Pea. The pink flowers are Boronia, a member of the rue family.
