The concept for the sculpture, which was installed on June 1, 2019, is "green and growing," which signifies the Kansas City Fed’s link to the economy, money and personal finance. Titled “Money Blomes,” it features three modern flower blooms that range from 9 to 12 feet in diameter.
The 12 points on the blooms represent the 12 regional Federal Reserve banks that are located throughout the United States. The three stems are various heights and symbolize the growth of money through saving and investing, and the numerous intersecting lines reflect the interconnectedness of money and the economy on everyday lives.
