Garden #5
An unexpected oasis of rare plants, this garden provides the connoisseur with much to linger over. The owners may be relatively new to
Pacific Northwest gardening but their knowledge of plants from far reaches is vast. Guided by a
designer and plantsman with Heronswood credentials, they have embraced a collector's palette while
successfully mingling in natives to blend the plantings to the surrounding landscape. Water also
figures prominently. From the pond vista and rain garden to the dry garden surrounded by swales,
this property demonstrates several ways water can be effectively managed to enhance a garden.
