How did a rare Tree Peony get from Japan to Tualatin?

Sandra Lafky Carlson hosts a live oral history interview with Art Sasaki and Terry Nishikawa as they share the unique journey of the Kishu Caprice Tree Peony from Japan more than 100 years ago to the garden at the Heritage Center. Join us as we cobble together this unlikely story of a family heirloom that somehow followed the “Pacific Trail” to Tualatin and is roughly one of 300 of this variety in the United States.
