Gardens for a university

George Washington University, Foggy Bottom, Washington, DC

Our planting designs for the school’s urban streetscapes and protected quadrangles emphasize spring and fall blooming plants. We specified native and adapted species with an emphasis on plants attractive to pollinators. Plants include: Rudbeckia deamii, Clethra ‘Hummingbird’, Kalimeris ‘Blue Star’, Perovskia ‘Little Spire’, Calamagrostis ‘Karl Foerster’, Anemone ‘Robustissima’, Nepeta ‘Six Hills Giant’, Muhlenbergia capillaris, Vernonia ‘Iron Butterfly’ and Monarda punctata.
