PowellsWood includes a 3-acre garden and a 35-acre native woodland. It's located in Federal Way, WA, just a half-an-hour away from Seattle.
There are several distinct rooms in the garden, and the following pictures show some of them.
I also provided links to the garden's website with beautiful photographs of those rooms.

Spring Garden obviously is beautiful in spring, but even in July it was charming!
Shirotae cherry trees with Hakonechloa grass and begonias hypnotized me and made this part of the Garden my favorite. Mossy branches and the trees' shadows are gorgeous!

Woodland Garden with its Douglas firs and masses of ferns has an overlook with a view of the trails and ravine.
