Pocatello Idaho Temple
[8] The architects used inspiration from other church temples, such as the one in Tucson, Arizona, and traditional buildings in Pocatello, including a local high school.[8] The temple sits on a 10.94-acre plot,[6] and the surrounding landscaping features a series of formal planting areas, arranged in a linear pattern with a vertical hierarchy.[7] It includes trees, most commonly Norwegian sunset maple, sawleaf zelkova, and Dolgo crabapple, as well as shrubs, such as English lavender, snowberry, and snow queen hydrangea.[5] Prior to the temple’s public open house, young church members from the area planted 25,000 flowers to prepare the grounds.[7] The interior features carpets, rugs, and decorative paintings with the same color palette and floral motifs of the exterior art glass.
