One allusion I found was a Botanical Garden out somewhere called Elysium Gardens. Elysium is the place in the Underworld where all the good people who lived their lives well go after they die. This is to designate the garden as a paradise.
Another allusion to Greek mythology may also be winged feet, which are used to describe things that are fast, especially sporting events like Cross Country and Track. These winged feet refer back to Hermes, because he is the one they originally came from. He wore them so he could get from place to place quickly to deliver messages for Zeus. I can see why he would want to rush, because Zeus doesn't like a particularly patient person.
