Spring is officially here, even if the weather doesn’t know it. Orcas is coming to life again, plant-wise. And it is appropriate that Ciscoe Morris is coming to the island to help rev us up and get the season going.
Ciscoe is well known in the media around the Northwest. KING5 TV airs his popular gardening segments with Meeghan Black as well as his weekly show “Gardening with Ciscoe.”
His book, ‘Ask Ciscoe’, was among the top selling garden books nationwide. In addition, he co‐authored books on roses and perennials, and he also writes a weekly garden column in the Thursday edition of The Seattle Times.
Ciscoe is crazy about dogs and gardening, and he can often be found working with his pooches, Fred and Ruby, in his Seattle garden which has been featured in several publications. Islanders have many things in common with Ciscoe and are very enthusiastic about his visits.
Ciscoe will speak at the April Garden Club Meeting in the theater at Orcas Center, 10 a.m., Wednesday, April 16, 2014. The topic will be “Creating a Wildlife Sanctuary Garden.” Ciscoe’s appearance is sponsored by the Orcas Island Garden Club, the Orcas Library and Friends of the Library. Everyone is welcome at this meeting. For more information, see www.orcasislandgardenclub.org.
