UM: Flowers
The University Record reports that budget cuts have reduced the number of plantings on campus this fall: “The reduction of 12,000 square feet of annual plantings and bulbs – primarily from Central Campus, especially Ingalls Mall and the Diag – will save some $152,000 per year.” The university also put a hold on its tree replacement program, increased its no-mow program, and cut back on turf renovation and irrigation crew staffing, according to the report.
