Planting Strips ...Seaside, Oregon

Another mid-block narrow point and pedestrian crossing (above) includes low wildflowers and perennials that frame a bus shelter designed as a cottage arbor.

 A close-up view of this planting strip (above) shows the mix of evergreens (mugho pine and huckleberry) and perennials (penstemon, yarrow and lobelia) that make the street interesting year-round. The bed below includes hosta, native ferns, penstemon and fire-red geum growing below native vine maple.
