A Fine Idea Takes Root

Returning native plants to their
rightful place

In this dry climate, it can take as long as 40 years for
a tree to grow just 1 feet. Because each plant is so
precious, park employees and volunteers carefully
excavate them before any construction.

Trees and shrubs are replanted
after construction.
