Bush Library To Feature Park Re-creating Prairie

DALLAS (AP) -- A 15-acre park at the upcoming George W. Bush Presidential Center will re-create a Texas prairie, complete with a wildflower meadow, a new blend of native grasses and even trees transplanted from the former president's ranch.

"I'm really excited about it. I think it's so pretty, so beautiful," said former first lady Laura Bush, who said she envisions people strolling along the park's paths and picnicking there once the center opens at the end of April.

The park's landscaping, which was just completed this month, re-creates the kind of prairie landscape that would have existed in the area before the city was here, said Mark Langdale, president of the George W. Bush Foundation.
