MARIO BARTEL/THE TRI-CITY NEWS Allie Penko shows volunteers from the Immigrant Services Society how to plant the three varieties of alternanthera that will fill out the City of Coquitlam's honey bee eco-sculpture at Inspiration Garden. Members of the public were invited to help plant the sculpture on Tuesday and Wednesday before it's hoisted atop a pole at the corner of Guildford and Pipeline. About 48 flats of red, green and yellow alternanthera were planted into special porous garden fabric that is stretched over a metal frame filled with compacted soil.
