Rainforest or sagebrush steppe? Washington has both, and your garden depends on which one you live in.

In the latest Evergreen Thumb episode, we walk through eight Washington regions using the EPA’s Level III ecoregions and talk about what each one means for your garden.

A big thank you to our dedicated volunteers with the WSU Extension Chelan-Douglas County Master Gardeners! Last Friday, our team spent the day at the Community Education Garden in Wenatchee cleaning up the dahlia beds and buttoning them up for the fall.

As the growing season comes to a close, these efforts help protect our wonderful dahlias beds through the winter and set the stage for another spring of planting and for colorful displays next of blooms year. We're grateful for the many hands that keep the garden thriving and continue to make it a place for learning, inspiration, and community connection 🌼

The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is tomorrow.

In episode 83 of The Evergreen Thumb, we talk with Tim Kohlhauff, Urban Horticulture Program Coordinator with WSU Extension Spokane County and an ISA-certified arborist, about why the trees in our communities matter and how to support them.

In this episode:
What counts as urban tree canopy, including the trees in your own backyard
How trees intercept air pollution, slow stormwater, and cool neighborhoods
The urban heat island effect and tree equity
New pests and a changing climate
The tension between housing needs and room for trees
Choosing a tree that fits your site, planting at the right depth, and watering in the first few years

Fall is putting on a beautiful show at the WSU Extension Chelan-Douglas County Master Gardeners Xeriscape Garden along the Wenatchee waterfront. 🍂✨

Native plants are bursting with late-season color, proving that a water-wise landscape can be just as vibrant as it is sustainable. It was the perfect fall day to stroll the pathways, soak in the sunshine, and enjoy the beauty of the season.
