Pacific Plant People Excerpt
With Neil Bell, Professor of Practice at Oregon State University (OSU) in Corvallis, Oregon.
Neil Bell specializes in evaluation of broadleaf evergreen shrubs for unirrigated landscape applications in western Oregon. Neil evaluates plants for hardiness, growth habit, and flowering. He uses the results to design low-input landscapes for year-round interest. These trials have featured wild lilac (Ceanothus), rockrose (Cistus and Halimium), hebe (Hebe), spider flowers (Grevillea), and manzanita (Arctostaphylos).
