Highline SeaTac Botanical Garden

SeaTac, Washington, United States

---

Highline SeaTac Botanical Garden in SeaTac, Washington, is a 10.5-acre community garden formed when two private gardens, including Elda Behm's Paradise Garden, were relocated to make way for SeaTac Airport's third runway.

Established in 2000 adjacent to the North SeaTac Community Center, the garden features a lush collection of native and exotic plants displayed in themed areas such as the Paradise Garden with a 120-foot stream and pond, and the Seike Japanese Garden, a serene space with traditional Japanese design elements relocated in 2006 as a war memorial.

The garden is maintained by volunteers and local gardening clubs and offers walking paths, water features, and varied plant collections, providing visitors with a peaceful retreat to enjoy nature's diversity. It is open year-round from dawn to dusk with free admission and hosts events, workshops, and plant sales to engage the community.
