Stroll into an oasis of native plants.
This garden is designed to absorb and filter stormwater. It features many local plant species you may recognize and some you may have never seen. Conservation landscapes like this shelter wildlife and are easy to care for. Once established, they need less watering and maintenance.

Seminary Park was developed in partnership with Montgomery County RainScapes, a program that encourages land management to slow the flow of stormwater into local streams.
