Old Open Business <br />Xeric Garden Plant List. <br />Terry Cook brought handouts about using native plants in a garden from a recent Boulder <br />County Master Gardener training class.

We also need to develop 1 -3 priority choices for each plot. <br />Susan and Terry voiced need to get with Mikl Brawner of Harlequin's Garden and seek <br />his input. Chris will attempt to contact Mikl and go visit his xeric demonstation garden <br />in north Boulder. The desire is to start planting in early May. Chris will call Howie <br />Mandel of Rocky Mountain Native Plants for cultivation and picture information and a <br />list of available plants for this spring. <br />Entry Plantings <br />Susan raised the issue of the McCaslin/S. Boulder Road corner — looks uncared for and <br />has a dead spruce. Chris responded that the city doesn't own the land. However, Judy <br />responded that all those plants were in the original design and the city must own it. Chris <br />has cleaned up the more formal areas. Chris is to check on property lines and pursue. <br />She also mentioned the dead trees at the McCaslin/Hwy 36 entry. <br />
