Seattle accent plant expedition…
My study group in Seattle went out on a field trip to collect native accent plants. These photos document our adventure into the wilds:
The excellent Peter Chapman, demonstrating the saw technique that we’ve been working so hard to perfect…
The fierce Peter and the indomitable Elsa Durham in saw kumite…
The intrepid Grant Rauzi with a licorice fern, deftly separated from a log with a saw…
The total take of accents, including licorice fern, coral berry, and red huckleberry…
Potted: Licorice fern growing on a rotted piece of wood, with moss temporarily attached with raffia.
And another licorice fern found growing on rotting log, planted in a pot with kanuma.
Wiring aficionado Joyce Tsuji with a black pine in the second Seattle study group, with our koi expert Dick Benbow, engaged in the first styling of an Englemann spruce…
And the noble students Ruth Chaus and John Muth, determinedly applying copper to their conifers…
Happy accent plant hunting everyone,
Michael

Great pics & weekend memories Mike! You captured my “deftness” in the rain forest despite the rain! Where’s Yoda?
Yoda had the day off and went to the Jedi Spa in Acapulco. Sorry we missed him.
This Seattle group really know how to have fun!.. 🙂
nice working place and nice trees…
Michael – it seems you all are having entirely too much fun up there!
