Elisabeth Carey Miller Botanical Garden in Seattle announced its 2008 Great Plant Picks in February. Selections are particularly suited for Washington, Oregon and British Columbia.

Plants are chosen based on ornamental value, ease of care and pest and disease resistance. More than 65 plants made the list this year including Arisarum proboscideum (mouse plant), Enkianthus perulatus (white enkianthus) and Fargesia robusta (fountain bamboo).
