Laverne Bish of the City’s Parks and Recreation Department spent much of last week planting new flowers and plants in the beds at Hemming Plaza. The City took over the maintenance and landscaping of Hemming Plaza earlier this year after it didn’t renew its contract with a private landscaping company. Since then, Bish and her crew have been busy. “They call me the flower lady,” said Bish, who has been with the City for two years. “Everything you see in the ground, me and my crew planted.” Bish said she tries to install flowers and plants that will come back year after year.
