Anyone know where one could find what the plant list or the planting plan of a particular project can be found? I would love to know what was planted at Discovery Green or Playa Vista or any other compelling project...but the best I can do is drive around it in google earth and see what I can ID.
Thanks!

The recently completed Los Angeles Grand Park has many plants ID'd with really nice signage, but the park's website http://grandparkla.org/ lacks the info.
However, if you feed inner geek, you'll eventually be able to do plant ID at 40mph. It just takes time to learn this stuff.

I am always amazed and what I can get by just asking.
