Nature sets the tone for this garden and as the caretaker I am often a surprised witness to nature's work. Of course I make decisions, add and subtract plants and do the gardening with a little help from my friends. 1930's house had many majestic trees and fine plants when I came 30 years ago into which I have insinuated my passion for dwarf conifers, foliage color & texture, natives & edibles.
Working closely with Nature, my basic intention is to create a balanced, healthy & exuberant garden that is deeply serene & refreshing. A small fenced corner of the garden, The Nature Reserve, is where the Nature Spirits dwell and is off limits to humans although cats are OK. Please join me for a stroll through this WILD STYLE garden. River City Gardens, a small sustainable landscape design company in Portland, Oregon, will help you create a little heaven on earth.
The heart of River City Gardens is Kathryn Leech, APLD, a Certified Landscape Designer with many years experience in gardening, garden design, ornamental pruning and consulting on landscape installations.
