Marymoor Park Plant List
Marymoor Park plant inventory conducted on 10/15/00 and
5/31/02 on Washington Native Plant Society field trips led by Fred Weinmann..
The list combines observations from both dates. Very few species were seen in
October that were not seen in May. No attempt has been made by Fred to
catalog the planted species around the Clise Mansion, nor the area north of the
through access road, nor west of the Sammamish Slough.
Nomenclature has been updated and will, therefore, not be
the same as found in Hitchcock and Cronquist (1973). Nomenclature is from the
book by Arthur Lee Jacobson, Wild Plants of Greater Seattle (2001). 151 species;
64 native, 87 introduced, 12 listed as noxious. N=Native to King County;
I=Introduced species; f=flower or fruit of current year; nox.= listed as
category A, B, or C on 2002 King County Noxious Weed List. Vascular plants by
Fred Weinmann; Bryophytes by Denise Liguori.
A couple of additions have been made to the list based on
additional visits by Michael Hobbs.
