Water is used cleverly to represent the teamwork required to deal with the Covid-19 pandemic. It spills down the sides of the bent-oak entrance arches, into raised, rectangular pools and down through the garden in rills that widen into a series of circular pools, dropping to ground level where the rills converge in a large pool. A York stone bench provides a place for reflection among prairie-style planting that mixes perennials such as campanulas, asters and persicarias with grasses. Trees, including the rare Pyrus cordata, provide shade.
