Gwonseon District Cosmos Seeds Sown Along Major Roads

Gwonseon District (District Chief Kim Jung-su) announced on the 16th that it plans to sow cosmos seeds along major urban roads to create a flower-lined path that evokes the autumn atmosphere, providing citizens with attractions and vitality in their lives while creating a beautiful street environment.

As part of its project to create beautiful green roads in the city, the district sowed 35 kg of cosmos seeds together with public workers and community job program participants in the roadside greenery areas of Gwonseon-ro from Beolmal Bridge to Homaesilsa Underpass (5.1 km), which previously served as planting locations for spring flowers such as poppies and tulips, and from Sehwa-ro Seodun Underpass to Seryu Underpass (1.2 km). Given the characteristic of cosmos flowers that typically bloom in 50 to 60 days, the flowers are expected to begin blooming in September and be in full bloom by October for people to enjoy.

One resident said, "It reminds me of the cosmos-lined path I walked on my way to and from school with friends in childhood," expressing anticipation for the beautifully created cosmos path.
