摘要

John Whittlesey, owner of Canyon Creek Nursery and Design in Oroville, California, is an exceptional plantsman. A naturalist in his youth, he grew into an apprentice nurseryman, and founded a specialty mail-order nursery of international renown. In 1986, Whittlesey wrote, typed, and direct-mailed his first sixteen-page Canyon Creek Nursery (CCN) catalogue filled with hard-to-find cottage garden plants. Its cover was illustrated with simple line drawings of a violet, a dianthus, and a geranium, drawnby his artist/educator wife Susan. When the final catalogue was mailed in 2004, the nursery and its owner had matured from a focus on growing plants for different climates around the country to a greater sensitivity to design and environmental advocacy specific to the American West. The final catalogue contained more of Susan's detailed illustrations. The cover image, featuring a floriferous hybrid sage (Salvia x jamensis) rooted in almost animated duff below, with birds, bugs, and pollinating butterflies, symbolically illustrated the direction, interest, and growth of Whittlesey's educational journey.
