    I don’t think Mr. Peterson knows just how talented he is to build a greenhouse like that, making so much of the structure by hand. Amazing!

    What makes this so precious is, in many places, like in Los Angeles where I live, this sort of structure would not be allowed or would be impossibly expensive to build given permits, codes, etc.
    Its so important that creativity and individuality like this is nurtured and encouraged. We all need to see things like this to know what is possible and to be reminded the world doesnt need to be a sea of generic, bleak, beige boxes.

  • @LSCoosCounty

    This is amazing! I’m curious about several plants Eric mentioned as being zone 9 plants so he takes them in. Parts of inner Portland have been reclassified as zone 9a. I’m on the southern Oregon coast in a solid 9a, maybe 9b. I wonder if Eric would leave some of those zone 9 plants outside or is it too big a risk? The threat of ice storms are scary. Love all the hummingbird sounds.

    • @overthefencetours
      @overthefencetours  Місяць тому +2

      Great question! From Eric “While the overall temperature during the winter has increased on average, climate change has increased the likelihood of extreme storms. I would not have time to react with such a huge collection it is easier to just plan ahead as if an ice storm or two is going to hit every winter so I don’t loose any hard to find plants”
