Growing Greener:  Nature in the City  
To help you with the dilemma of choosing the right plant to keep your yard green, the Department of Planning and Development has prepared a selected plant list of cold hardy and drought tolerant plants from trees to flowers to make your yard more beautiful and resistant to our changing weather patterns.  All of the plants recommended are readily available at local nurseries. 

Growing Greener:  Nature in the City
has three sections: a landscape plan showing the application of the plants for home use; a chart listing all the plants for each category: trees, shrubs, groundcovers, ornamental grasses, vines and flowers, plus a plant fact sheet for each plant. 

A CD of the information contained in this website is available for $3.00 plus shipping.  For more information, call the Urban Design Division at: (407) 246-2269.
