Goodfellow Grove demonstrates the use of native plants in a transition
landscape, flowing from a highly maintained, intensively used space to
a low-maintenance, "naturalistic" one. The transitional
nature of this garden can be observed in the way the formality of
the landscape
adjacent to the Center for Urban Horticulture buildings gives way to more informal plantings and
maintenance towards the Union Bay Natural Area.
The
garden features native plant species from the Pacific Northwest. Generally,
the peak of bloom is mid spring to earlysummer, though autumn color can
be outstanding.

and find solitude in this garden and enjoy the diversity of floranative

Funding
for the grove comes from family and friends of the late Marilou Goodfellow.
