Hello World

I am The Garden Marmot. I live in Oregon and have a 2/3 acre city lot. The house was carved out of a walnut orchard in the 50's and the previous owners have all been plant buffs. The yard has several interesting trees and a large collection of rhododendrons, all very well established.

My husband and I purchased the home in 2010. At that time, the yard was very overgrown. The previous owner had suffered serious health problems and was not able to maintain everything for several years. We've spent the last three years chainsawing, hacking, weeding and pruning in attempt to bring the yard back to its previous splendor.

I need this blog to keep a record of the changes going on in my yard. I will share what I learn along way.
