Description
It's long grass with a purpose! Find out why the City of Bloomington decided to add native plants and grasses to two highly visible landscapes in the city.
A
B
It
was
first
installed,
there
was
six
different
types
of
grass
that
were
planted
and
over
16
different
kinds
of
wildflowers.
These
are
all
native
plants
that
that
can
survive
on
their
own.
In
this,
this
climate
they've
evolved
in
this
climate,
so
they
need
very
little
care
once
they're
established
and.

While
Mother
Nature
has
welcomed
this
new
landscape,
some
residents
are
still
asking
questions
about
the
tall
grasses
outside
of
civic
plaza
and
the
Public
Works
building
no
lawn
mowing.
Citywide
has
not
been
reduced
just
in
these
designated
areas,
which
not
only
frees
up
time
for
maintenance
staff
to
focus
on
other
things,
but
also
positively
impacts.
The
environment.
