Cover art for The Gardens of Sampson & Beasley lyrics by Pink Martini

Bella Madrona is a 26 year old garden located at the edge of the urban growth boundary, buffered from civilization by a wetland upstream from two wildlife refuges. It is totally organic in practice and philosophy, and has become a haven for all sorts of insects, reptiles, birds and mammals. The wild area contains maturing specimens of unusual trees and shrubs in a very peaceful setting, belying its proximity to suburbia.
