Carl S. English, Jr., Botanical Gardens, Botanical garden in Ballard, Seattle, United States.

The seven-acre garden features over 500 plant species and 1,500 varieties, including fan palms, Mexican pines, rhododendrons, and roses.

Carl English, appointed by the Army Corps in 1931, dedicated four decades to transform this space into an English-style landscape.

The gardens serve as an educational center where visitors learn about horticultural practices, plant species, and conservation methods.

Located at 3015 NW 54th Street next to the Hiram M. Chittenden Locks, the garden offers free admission and hosts summer concerts.

The botanical collection includes a specialized fuchsia display and seasonal lily area, complementing the engineering marvel of the adjacent locks.
