The photograph shows a plaque created to honor Tom LaRochelle at Springfield College. LaRochelle was the Springfield College groundsman, and the plaque reads how the garden is dedicated by his friends in an attempt to show his ability to improve the quality of life with flowers. The photograph also shows the actual garden which is located directly behind the plaque in a stoned structure shaped like a triangle. There are also some small bushes located around the stoned structure on the dirt. A small portion of a building can be seen behind the garden, and this building appears to be Cheney Hall.
