This native flower was blooming on World Peace Wetland Prairie. It cost nothing. The birds planted it and it was in bloom and attracting pollinators on Oct. 27, 2007, just in time to be seen by volunteers and guests at Wreath-making Day!

The Fayetteville, Arkansas, city council voted on Tuesday Oct. 30, 2007, to amend the millage ordinance to remove the raise and then passed the millage ordinance, which had to be passed in October.
