One of our favorite children's books is Miss Jaster's Garden by N.M. Bodecker. It tells the sweet and somewhat fanciful tale of a woman who resides in a villa by the sea and the hedgehog who lives in her garden. As the first blossoms bring joy to Miss Jaster, Hedgie the hedgehog unwittingly runs off with a patch of marigolds, baby's breath and sweet william. When we carved our little Hedgie, we thought the perfect place to hide him would be in a place as beautiful as the one in which he fictitiously resides.
The Oregon Garden, about 40 miles SE of Portland and home to 20 specialty gardens is such a place. Once there, hop on the tram for a tour or simply walk the beautiful grounds on foot.
In one distinctive garden Mr. and Mrs. Pot will lazily greet you. Nearby you'll find a dinosaur buried in the sand. A path will take you away from those fossils past some Weird Plants and across the backs of a number of turtles toward a nautical play place. Enjoy a bit of smooth sailing before checking under the ship's corner nearest the tub. There you'll find Hedgie tucked behind a concrete block.
Please reseal and hide bags well. This garden is well maintained but we hoped this one little nook might get overlooked.
