Christine Cowan

Christine has lived in Portland, OR for 16 years, having grown up in Vancouver B.C. and then a 9 year stint in Toronto. Ont. before she made the move to PDX.  

She hails from a line of gardening women. Her beloved Tutu (grandmother) won awards for her garden, in particular for her roses.  Christine's mum Wendy was also an avid gardener who volunteered at the UBC Botanical gardens.  Christine's passion for gardening started early and in particular she was drawn to succulents and the unique creations of Thomas Hobbs in Vancouver.  She is inspired by the unique and often quirky look of the plants as well as the beautiful containers she puts them in.  Succulents are sustainable, peaceful and low maintenance. Each one is unique and some are flawed but they are just as beautiful - like we are as humans!
