Smith is pictured with Bruce Stratton who helped with the planting. La Saine Ware, President of the Cottonwood Garden Club, said that she wants to see year-round color at the park. Daffodils and Forsythia bloom in spring. The Crape Myrtles bloom in summer and fall. The Pyracantha trees, which were planted years ago, show red in the wintertime. - Anderson, CA
