Garden club beautifies Mt. Prospect village hall

If the Mount Prospect village hall looks a litle prettier this week, thank the members of the Garden Club of Mount Prospect. They planted a variety of perennials Monday.

In keeping with the club’s long history of community support, garden club President Mary Lange recently asked the village staff if her club could donate labor for a planting project on village property.

The village had prepared a landscape plan for a perennial bed for the Keystone Plaza on the west side of the village hall, and club members agreed to install the plants.

The bed features a combination of flowering plants and ornamental grasses, including Prairie Dropseed Grass, Caradonna Salvia and Alpine Betony.
