A Message from Blue Heron Herbary
The Herbary is currently on hiatus. Please check back later. Thank you. Visit our 75 by 140 foot display garden and see all the herbs you can imagine. Blue Heron Herbary is located on Sauvies Island on the banks of the Columbia River. The garden is in a natural setting bordered by a wildlife refuge where waterfowl, eagles, cranes and of course, blue herons abound. The garden is home to songbirds, bees and butterflies.
When you visit the garden, you'll notice that we use unique unusual herbs, as well as household herbs as landscape plants. Over 275 herbs are planted in specialty beds. Some of our specialty beds are: Mediterranean, Tea, Salad, Bee and Butterfly, Lavender, Asian and of course our Shakespearean bed. We specialize in having the widest selection of unusual herbs possible, from Ashwaghanda to Yarrow, as well as the finest culinary plants on the market. |
