Flowers!

[jethrien]

There are flowers in the park. Lots of them - daffodils, narcissi, crocus, hyacynths, snowdrops, lenten roses, periwinkle, forsythia, what I think might have been scilla, even some early magnolia. (Magnolia, what are you doing blooming so early? You're just going to get killed when the night temperatures dip below freezing again! And then you'll be all brown and slimy and ashamed of yourself for not being patient. Silly magnolia!) The witch hazel are already gone.

If I can't have a garden of my own, at least I have the park.

...quite a lot of the campus, really.

If you want something specific - the Shakespeare Garden is her. (And the all-white Peace Garden. There was something about a trolley. She worked on the Bio pond. And the trolley, although that might have been temporary. The president's garden. And a lot of the random plantings around campus...)

Maybe the trolley is the 37th Street SEPTA station (pretty neat--the entrance is covered by an actual trolley car):
