Seattle Times recommends Joy Creek catalogue

Earlier this month, in The Seattle Times, writer Valerie Easton mentioned that the Joy Creek Nursery catalogue was one of two that had remained on her desk since the day they arrived as she uses them "as reference books as well as dream books."

"The Joy Creek Nursery catalog may be a little more serious in tone, but I love its concise descriptions of hundreds of desirable plants," writes Easton.

"How can owner Maurice Horn squeeze everything you need to know in just a few sentences? And since Joy Creek is in Scappoose, Ore. (not far from Portland), it has a climate similar to ours so these are plants you can count on," Easton adds. "Clematis, penstemon, hydrangeas and drought-tolerant perennials and grasses are specialties. If you're anywhere near Scappoose, be sure to drop by to see the impressive display gardens."

Easton notes that our catalog is a "plant-lovers bargain" at $3.00 and can be ordered at www.joycreek.com or 503-543-7474.

Our thanks to The Seattle Times.
