  • Join us as we journey through these astounding gardens located on a large urban lot in Eugene, Oregon, zone 8. The serene Contemplative Garden is literally squeezed into the side of a house, but couldn't be more relaxing. The Open Air Living Room Garden, consisting of the Sun and Moon Gardens, is in the backyard beyond, and is truly a garden masterpiece.
    As homeowner Ami says, Leslie is a 'Pyrotechnic of Color' and the garden is alive and bursting with color at all times of the year. Most of the hardscaping, installed by Aaron Davis - also of Whole Gardens NW - is likewise astounding, and lays the perfect foundation for an ever-blooming smorgasbord of plants.
    If you would like to read about the gardens in the form of Leslie's very inspired writing, check out her blog post, The Art of the Open Air Living Room Garden

    I love your tours - I live in the PNW and am currently doing my amateur development of my own garden, and seeing the use of natives and what plants work well with them helps me so much with ideas! Beautiful garden, wonderful tour!

    Another phenomenal Leslie creation! I’m curious, is there a drip system or irrigation to this garden? It seems like most of the plantings are fairly drought tolerant. I’m wondering how frequently the homeowners have to water.

      @@sharons4056 from Leslie: “The garden has the best chocolate cake soil so that helps with moisture retention. But, yes there is a great irrigation system that waters on a moderately regular schedule. Something like a couple/ few times a week as needed with a smart controller to adjust for weather.”

    Lovely,informative garden tours, but I really find your printed comments have too many errors and are distracting, especilly when trying to verify names of some of the plant species being presented.
