To recognize local investment in buildings, landscaping, events, and other improvements, Bryan Development has created a monthly “Spotlight Award.” September’s recipient is April Smith and Bryan Parks & Recreation for planting, caring, and watering of the potted flowers around the downtown square this year. April, who serves as the city’s horticulturist and arborist, has graciously added care of the downtown flowers to her workload. April’s work starts at the park’s greenhouse with planting seeds in February, so that the flower pots are filled with colorful pansies by late March/early April. When the weather heats up, April swaps out the pansies to the more heat loving summer annuals. Now, as Fall arrives, the larger pots will be getting mums.
