For the flowerbed, over 150 shrubs of a short-haired white chrysanthemum simulating white fur on bright blue triangles were bought. The design was handled by the landscape designer Lyudmila Zhukova and the friendly staff of the Podolsk combine of accomplishment together with the museum staff, public assistants and volunteers.
