Perched on Queen Anne Hill, this home features native plants such a Big Leaf and Vine Maples, Salal, Snowberry, Tall Oregon Grape, Bunchberry, and Western Trillium. Because of the urban setting and limited space, areas not normally considered for plants provide landscape opportunities. Nursery areas on the roof and backyard accommodate young plants to be used for restoration efforts in other parks. Spaces under ramps are filled with ferns and mosses. The passage between the garage and back door becomes a verdant wetland. It’s a garden that borrows the views of Puget Sound and the habitat of neighboring big trees, serving as a much needed wildlife refuge in the city.
