Petal Power - over 55 baskets have been adopted

Thank You! Join your community by adopting one of the beautiful flower baskets that line California Avenue in the Junction. Each basket is filled to overflowing with beautiful seasonal flowers that shows a real love for nature.

For $145 donation (you can purchase more than one basket) your flower basket will show the neighborhood your support for West Seattle. Your basket is professionally planted and designed by City Planters. The Junction Association will take care of watering and maintaining your basket.

Your basket will be completed with a nameplate affixed to the historic light pole showing who adopted the basket. You may have the nameplate in your name, for a gift (fun for an anniversary or birthday), or in memory.OWER: Two Ways to Adopt
