Washington Park Arboretum, Seattle, Washington


While in Seattle, we took a little walk through the gorgeous (and huge) Washington Park Arboretum. The park is only about 15 minutes from Shelley and Kennet’s condo.
The Arboretum is a spectacular urban green space on the shores of Lake Washington just east of downtown Seattle and south of the University of Washington. Washington's official State Arboretum contains internationally recognized woody plant collections on 230 acres. Noteworthy are North America's largest collection of Sorbus and Maple, the second largest collection of species Hollies and significant collections of oaks, conifers and camellias. We took a few pictures.
