My Shop, Contained Exuberance, Re-Opens for Spring 2022

We await the official start of spring on Sunday, March 20, at 8:33 a.m. in Portland and the Pacific Northwest.

Meteorologically speaking, the official first day of spring started March 1^st. I proclaim the first day of spring is when I re-open my Shop! So, let it begin this Friday, March 4, 2022!

Contained Exuberance, my Shop next door to @xeraplants is open Fridays & Saturdays, 10am-5pm.

Pallets of pottery are unpacked and the Shop is filled with exciting new glazed earthenware, terra cotta, cast stone (cement), and lightweight polyresin pots in beautiful colors/patinas and textures.

Plan to visit. The best selection is in spring (particularly now with pandemic supply chain slow downs).

After our cold snap last week, Portland continues it cheerful, energetic creep into spring. Witch-hazels in my home garden, Harborton Hill, have faded after a month-long ride, but cyclamen, hellebores, winter honeysuckle, Arctostaphylos (manzanita), viburnums, and early flowering plums are in full bloom.

The Pacific Northwest offers a gentle ride into full-on SPRING.
