After visiting the Colvos Creek Sale, we headed over to Dig Nursery because it's just not a complete day on Vashon without stopping by Dig! 
 
This winter, Ross and Sylvia replaced the floor of their main building and changed the interior as well. Cool concrete square shelving!

A mixture of old and new.
 
A wood crate displays baby cacti well. 


A rare bloom on this sedum. (Sedum sylvianum, I believe)   Notice how the base of the flower matches the lavender highlights of the foliage while the top consists of a boss of reddish gold stamens
 
Traditional Vashon Island plant love dance.
 
Sedum weeps tears of joy.

This aloe is labeled Aloe Lavender.  Either a color blind plantsman or woman named it or it takes on lavender hues at some point in it's life.  Right now, I'd call it Aloe Terra Cotta.  Either way, it came home with me!

So many great plants to look at and so beautifully displayed!

I know that there were some other plants that hitched a ride in the plantmobile but don't remember now what they were. 

Savvy business woman, queen of fun displays and master of pot gardening, Sylvia puts together some great container gardens. 


Sheep grazing on succulents.

Beschorneria yuccoides 'Flamingo Glow' is some kind of gorgeous especially near those Aloe dorotheae!






Hover and Steel Life are the stars of the greenhouse right now.





Happy looking tree ferns!


Urn baby, Urn! (Disco Inferno)

Another of Sylvia's creations.


New rule - All gardens must have a chandelier!

One of these would work, too.

This combination of the red pots, Forest Pansy Redbud and Aechmea blanchetiana made my heart pound a little harder! 
 
Tomorrow we'll take a sneak peek at Sylvia and Ross's new garden!
