Coenosium Gardens I have been a high school science teacher for most of my life. It is a side of me that my many conifer friends know little about. I have decided that as my teaching career winds down toward retirement, that I would try blogging to share some of my experiences. If you'd like to experience some parts of life in a science classroom, pay my blog a visit. Life in the Classroom of a Science Teacher Visit www.cnos.biz our newer, hi-res site with new information and downloads. I have just named some of my golden 'Acrocona' seedlings and have uploaded pictures with short descriptions. I have also added a free download of a powerpoint that was well received when I presented it about the founding of the American Conifer Society.

Conifers | Home Page Dianne and I have been working on a project with South Seattle Community College for the past ten years. We have now posted detailed information about the project on this web site. We have been waiting until after the project was formally dedicated to announce it here. This link will take you to pages that detail the project and show the construction of the garden. Click here to tour the project.
This is the site to find out what is happening in the world of conifers. It is also THE site to locate rare and unusual plants that you might like to add to your landscape. It is THE site to read new and old articles about conifers. We include pictures of new and old conifer cultivars. People new to the conifer world and people who have been studying conifers for years will find many interesting things on this site. GOTELLI DWARF CONIFER
COLLECTION The term, Coenosium, is an old Greek word meaning plant community. We selected it because we wanted a name that was very distinctive and would be immediately associated with our very special nursery. Many of our customers find it a difficult name to pronounce, but they all know who we are. Coenosium Gardens is a retail nursery
oriented toward the collector of rare and unusual plants, with an emphasis on conifers. It
has been in business since 1979 and 90% of our business is mail order. Our goal has always
been to make new conifers available to everyone at affordable prices. Robert (Bob) Fincham handles the technical aspects of the business, maintains the stock plant collections and gardens, and takes care of all of the plant propagation. Dianne Fincham handles all aspects of the business that involve dealing with customers. Bob maintains this web site. Its contents are the product of his mind. He hopes you will want to return on a regular basis. He will be adding new material to the many directories on a regular basis. Your input is always welcome. Bob may be reached by email at bobfincham@mashell.com As you can see here, Bob had himself cloned to handle all of the various projects presently underway.
