Library & Butterfly Garden

Project List

KCGB provided large entry planters at the library and assisted with guidance for a Soil and Water Conservation Commission grant, which funded raised beds at the building entrance.

In 2022, the garden at the corner of Court Street and Park Avenue was redesigned as a butterfly garden. KCGB contributed seed funding for the initial installation and has continued adding pollinator-friendly plants in subsequent years.

Featured plants include:

  • Sedum ‘Autumn Joy’

  • Lantana ‘Confetti’

Plantings include (cont):

  • Stokes Aster (Stokesia laevis ‘Color Wheel’ and ‘Mel’s Blue’)

  • Goldenrod (Solidago rugosa ‘Fireworks’)

  • Salvia greggii ‘Furman’s Red’

  • Catmint (Nepeta faassenii ‘Walker’s Low’)

  • Flag Iris

  • Vitex (Vitex agnus-castus)

  • Hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis)
