And he was selected really because his pallet of work really reflected what was originally up on the High Line. He was known for using very naturalistic massings of grasses and perennials that really evoked a natural-looking landscape, which you can see in this picture here. But he added in a lot of new plant species into the mix so that you'd have vivid displays all through the seasons.
And all things that are very dense in energy, so they don't take up a lot of storage space when you keep them. For the cereals, all seeds of perennial grasses make great storage crop. They dry well, they store well, and they can be turned into a lot of different things.
