Below, the eye confuses the sculpture in the foreground with the tree in the background, losing the dancers in the tree.

| Linda Wise Sculpture |
This is one of my favorite sculptures in Eureka by one of my favorite local sculptors, Linda Wise. I l-o-v-e love how it has been sited. I think what this horse really needs is a grassy field in which to stand. Many of the original plantings in this bed did not survive the harsh coastal and concrete-planter imposed conditions. I would love to see a mass planting of Mexican Feather Grass Nassella tenuissima and some repetition of clumps of natives like Iris douglasiana and a few plantings of Red Flowering Current Ribes sanguineum. Another simple solution to update this planting median would be to plant California native Carex pansa en masse with occassional plantings of Wormwood Artemesia 'Powis Castle'. It might be fun to throw a wreath around its neck for the Kentucky Derby too.
