The garden design seeks to create a sustainable tribute to Charlotte, with:
- flower/foliage characteristics that include drought tolerance;
- use of native plants, herbs, daisies, groundcovers, bulbs and wildflowers;
- easy care;
- fragrant tall plants along the sidewalk to provide screening, and between the children’s library windows;
- spring to fall continuum of bloom; and a
- tapestry of varied foliage.
