Gene Reid Battles To Keep Tucson Parks Green
Gene Reid, supervisor of city parks, oversees Tucson's three year old city nursery where over 80,000 trees and plants are cultivated for parks and tax financed projects. He experiments with grasses including U-3 Bermuda and Lippia to stay green year round, grows rare plants via the U.S. Bureau of Plant Introduction, and salvages salvaged trees for city landscaping while fighting vandalism and fruit-bearing tree losses.
