The day after my friends and I visited Joy Creek they celebrated their 20th anniversary with a garden party (of course !) and a cake in the likeness of their logo. I salute any successful horticultural endeavor , especially those with beautiful display gardens. And speaking of display gardens , these were in their high-summer glory for our visit . Ever been in a Hydrangea grove ? It's dramatic. A travel companion raises the arms for rescue..drowning in hydrangeas ! But the Hydrangeas are not the only attraction. Joy Creek has one of the finest selections of Clematis on the west coast , especially since the demise of Chalk Hill. And lots of other stuff too..
