The Bookworm's BOOK SALE!

Home to book addicts, The Bookworm is throwing a massive book sale from their library stock of second-hand books.  As much as I love the convenience of having a Kindle reader, it can never compare to the smell or the feeling of holding a thick book in your hands and flipping through each page.

Here's a rare chance to stock up on some great reads and build your personal library. Books all start at RMB 5 with a wide range of genres to choose from.

"Comb through some of our hidden treasures and get a start on your summer reading."

Erica, Calluna, and Daboecia offer both interesting foliage and rich flower color that add sparkle to the garden all year long. Then Dave is off to the heart of Portland, Oregon where a garden perfectly blends horticulture, architecture, and literature into a stunning space. The Portland Classical Chinese Garden or Lan Su Yuan (Garden of Awakening Orchids) was hand crafted by Chinese artisans using traditional materials and techniques to create pavilions, bridges, and water features accented by magnificent specimens of Asian flora. Of special note are inscriptions that appear all through the garden and structures. The inscriptions come to life on the pages of Listen to the Fragrance: Literary Inscriptions in Lan Su Yuan. In this episode of Garden Travels, Dave's favorites include: Lavatera and Verbena.
