On Saturday, the day of getting lucky, I discovered Sunnyside Nursery in Marysville. A separate post about the nursery will come later but today, let's take stroll through the Smith Display Garden which surrounds a home next to the nursery. I'm imagining that the owners live here. I'll definitely ask next time I visit the nursery.
The garden is designed so that there are surprises around every corner, even in long expanses like the one below where one might imagine that everything was visible
I'm in love with these ceramic, larger-than-life asparagus spears. The excellent placement doesn't hurt, either.
Out in front a golden catalpa glows in the sun on one side of this bed while a coppiced paulownia offers more huge foliage. Was there a Magnolia macrophylla in there as well? It was so exciting being in this garden that I've forgotten.

Fused glass flowers.
So many stunning foliage combinations.
Looking toward the back of the house.
Clever use of Acorus between stepping stones.

There is also plenty of outdoor living space.

Musa basjoo waking up for the season. The nursery sign is just beyond.
