Cut High, Often, And Follow The 1/3 Rule.
The best habit for lawn cutting is often and never remove more than 1/3 of the leaf blade at any one cutting. Allowing the grass to stay tall helps keep weed seeds
from germinating and reduces the need to water.
Keep Mower Blades Sharp.
Dull mower blades will tear the turf. Frayed tips will allow the leaf to dry out quickly and make the turf more susceptible to insect and disease damage. Sharpen mower blades often.
Recycle Grass Clippings.
When mowing, return grass clippings to the lawn. Grass clippings contribute approximately 1 pound of nitrogen per 1000 square feet annually to your lawn, think of it as free fertilizer!
Fertilize Your Lawn.
Fertilizing replenishes lost nutrients and ensures your lawn has the essential nutrients required for optimum growth. Even if you are lucky enough to start with great soil, as your lawn grows, it absorbs nutrients and leaves the soil less fertile.
Water Deeply And Infrequently.
If you need to irrigate, water during the early morning hours, Watering in the morning minimizes water loss from evaporation and allows the sun to dry the leaf blade before disease sets in. Give your lawn a good, deep soaking, not just
a quick mist. Soaking the lawn to a depth of 6" forces the lawn to produce deeper roots. To maintain a healthy lawn, it requires about 1 inch of water per week.
The key to a weed free lawn is a thick, healthy lawn. Getting your lawn on a regular fertility program, as well as Aerating and Overseeding when necessary will produce a thick, healthy lawn that will have the ability to keep out weeds and make your lawn the envy of the neighborhood.
Overseeding Your Lawn.
Grass seed will not germinate until soil temperatures are near 50 degrees F. Soil temperatures are not in the 50's F until night time temperatures are consistently in the 50's F. Seeding a lawn in late Summer or Fall is ideal. Early Fall is preferred because seed can germinate faster in the warm soil and continue to establish itself through the cooler weather of Fall and Winter. Overseeding can be done directly after Aerating if timed correctly.
Control Thatch. (Dethatching)
Think of thatch as a barrier that water and nutrients cannot break through. Fertilizer is wasted, since it only feeds the top layer and not the roots. Water runs off instead of getting to the root system and weeds begin to take over. The best to to Dethatch is in the Fall.
If your lawn looks weak in high traffic areas, the best thing to do is Aerate and Overseed. Aerating breaks the soil surface by poking holes into the ground; it relieves compaction and helps to control thatch. Oxygen and water can now enter the soil, and fertilizer can reach the grass roots. Healthier grass means fewer weeds. After Aeration is a good time to Overseed.

Application ref number – 2014/62/91282/E – Land off Woodward Court/ Hepworth Lane, Mirfield – Bellway Homes
On the south west adjacent to Hepworth close lies the quarry hole worked many years ago. This area was probably worked to provide the stone to build Balderstone hall.
Objection, Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS” = (Soak-away)
On Hepworth Close there are 8 number properties with low back gardens, of which 4 properties stand 2m below the finish ground level of the site. These 8 properties have finish floor levels that are between 0.400 – 2.200 below the existing site level.
The dry stone boundary walls, of which the foundations are directly built on top of the rock seam.
The rock head is stated to be 2m below the existing ground level throughout the field. The field falls NE to SW, and NW to SE. Hepworth close is sited on the falls NE to SW, and NW to SE boundary of the site which is down stream of the proposed development.
Hepworth Lane, Hepworth Drive, are both sited on the SE, and SW boundary of the site with several properties below the existing ground level of the site. Some of these have a finish floor levels between 0.500mm – 0.700mm below, which are down steam of the proposed development.
If SUDS were to be used within this areas of the development boundaries, and not excluding beyond the boundary areas the SUDS discharge of surface water runoff would follow the top of the rock head effecting properties adjacent to the proposed development.
In the event of rain-fall over a period of days followed with, cloud busts, and or extreme weather conditions, SUDS would be overwhelmed creating below ground flooding, and the possibility of over ground flooding to adjacent Properties.
The use of SUDS on high ground, and with excessive ground cross falls, and boundary properties downstream. “SUDS is a serious design error for this development”…
As a property owner that falls within the area of this objection I request clarity, and information directly from Kirklees Metropolitan Council (Planning Department) regarding this objection, and a guarantee that if this development is approved, and developed, that my property will not be at risk from flooding with the installation of SUDS…
Explanation, photos of Sustainable Urban Drainage System (SUDS)
S.U.D.S is basically a new set of words for Soak-Away’s all you do is excavate a hole cover the base, and sides of the excavation with geotec material, place plastic aqua-cells modular units in the envelope formed by the geotec material, then rap over the aqua-cells to form a seal.
The photos illustrates one in let 100mm pipe, and one 100mm inspection pipe once work is complete you fill around, and on top of the aqua-cells with clean 10mm gravel then back fill with sub-soil, and top soil to finish ground level.
S.U.D.S is expected to mimic natural conditions. Sustainable drainage systems cover the whole range of sustainable approaches to surface drainage management. They are designed to control surface water runoff close to where it falls and mimic natural drainage as closely as possible.
This is what S.U.D.S needs to mimic:
It is impossible to mimic the natural runoff of a site: when you remove 60% of the grass, and 60% roots which absorb the rain to feed the grass.
Top soil acts as a natural attenuation system when you remove 60% top soil from a site you remove attenuation.
With the time it takes rain to filter though the grass, and roots, top soil, because this is a slow process we will also see water evaporation before it reaches sub-soil level.
In essence 40-50% of rain is removed before the water reaches the sub-soil? This is based on removing 60% field and replacing it with hard standings.
The problems with S.U.D.S are as follows:
S.U.D.S cannot be used on high ground, and not on a boundary of low lying existing properties, not in none permeable ground.
Please remember, how can, S.U.D.S control, manage surface water runoff when you cannot turn the rain off.


Synthetic grass for landscaping and recreation is growing 10% to 15% a year in the U.S. A lot of people are turning to turf grass to achieve an ascetically greener lawn, but is it a good idea? Turf grass does not have to be watered, mowed or fertilized. Which can be seen as a nice investment. It limits the need to be taken care of, especially when you live in a dry climate. Most synthetic grass is made of nylon, polypropylene or polyethylene.
Purchasing turf can seem like the end to constantly grooming your lawn. On average artificial grass can be from $7 to $23 per square foot. Although, you won’t have to care for it for up to 25 years. In comparison, real grass has to be cared for, which include numerous products and resources that could cost a lot. Turf grass is also more environmentally friendly. Real grass has to mowed, which releases air pollutants. Also mowers are pretty noisy, contributing to noise pollution. Most people do not like the idea of having synthetic grass in their yard, because it doesn’t feel like natural grass even though it look a lot like it.
When considering turf over real grass, you should consider what do you want out of your lawn. Do you want to purchase turf purely for visual purposes or for environmental reasons or maybe for maintenance reasons. Whatever it may be, make sure you research and prepare for a large investment.
Mulch, which is material that’s placed on the soil surface, can greatly help your lawn, garden or landscaping projects. Overall, mulch is very beneficial because it can help your lawn both physically and aesthetically. Although using mulch is optional, it can protect your lawn if used properly. If you haven’t considered using it before, here are a some benefits you should consider:
- Reduces evaporation from soil surface, cutting water use by 25-50%
- Stabilizes soil moisture
- Moderates soil temperature extremes
- Can limit the amount of weeds that appear in your garden.
- During the Summer, mulch helps limit evaporation, which helps your soil retain moisture.
- Cedar bark mulch can be used as an insect repellent.
- Your yard waste, can be recycled as mulch. This saves money and time.
- Prevents soil compaction
- Controls soil erosion
Since mulch offers a variety of benefits, it is in lawn owners’ best interest to consider using it. There a several types of mulch, so carefully decide which type is the most appropriate for your lawn.

Seasonal yard work, for most of us, it’s a love-hate rapport. We take pride in our manicured lawns, but often resent the time it takes away from living our lives
Early To Rise
Starting your lawn care routine as early in the day to safeguard working in extreme temperatures. The early times also leaves time for other activities to enjoy!
Let The Mower Do the Work
With a battery-powered mower, you’ll hardly break a sweat while cutting the grass. These lightweight tools are easier to move than gas-powered mowers, and don’t put off those foul fumes. Before you begin, make sure your mower blade is adjusted to the right height for your grass.
Usually, spring seasons are rainy and grass grows quickly, so you’ll be able to set your blade lower than you would in the height of summer or during a deficiency. Regardless of environmental factors, you never want to cut more than 1/3 of the total grass height as that can leave your lawn susceptible to weeds and breakdown.
To Edge or Not To Edge?
Edging is a personal preference and gives the perfect seal of professionally, well-manicured lawns. We recommend edging along sidewalks, driveways, patios and garden areas to add a finishing touch to your landscape. Depending on the design, the use of landscape edging, or look to the multi-use offered by a strong trimmer can cut back on some of the edging work.
It is awesome and rewarding to change out designs however, space them out or complete in phases to deter from being overwhelmed.
Summer is almost here after a different kind of winter, a late spring warm-up and a good bit of spring rainfall in some areas of the state. LasTop Lawn Maintenance and Landscaping, Inc. (LasTop) care practices of fertilization and weed control should have already been done to set the lawn up for a good summer. Let’s consider the areas of summer mowing, weed control and watering and some of the “dos and don’ts” of each practice!
Mow a Little Bit Higher
- Mowing lawns at a mowing height 3 inches or more helps the lawn cope with summer heat stress and shades the soil surface to reduce weed germination.
- Mow frequently enough to not remove any more than 1/3 the total leaf area in any single mowing. If your mower is set to a 3 inch cutting height try to mow before the lawn reaches 4 1/2 inches.
- If you are gone from home for a while and the lawn is much higher than normal upon your return, it is best to adjust the cutting height a notch or two higher so as to not try and remove all the accumulated growth in one mowing. Cut it at the higher height for a week or two then drop the height a notch the next time you mow until you reach the desired summer cutting height.
- Frequent mowing also helps grass clippings to filter back into the lawn and recycle fertilizer nutrients.
Controlling Weeds in Established Lawns
Summer is not the best time to control perennial broadleaf weeds.
- Many broadleaf herbicide product labels state to not apply if the day temperatures are 85° or higher as a precaution against injuring the lawn.
- Weeds also need to be actively growing to have the greatest likelihood for good weed control from herbicide applications. Weeds in non-irrigated lawns during dry periods are less likely to be controlled by herbicides.
- From mid-June on is also the time when crabgrass makes a good bit of growth and becomes much more noticeable. This time of year it may be difficult to control actively growing crabgrass with a single herbicide application. It may take two applications two or three weeks apart to get decent control. (You have to use a post-emergence crabgrass herbicide to control growing plants, crabgrass preventers will not kill already growing plants.)
- Precautionary statements will be spelled out on herbicide product labels. It is the responsibility of the user to read and follow all label direction associated with any herbicide application.
Weeds in New Lawns
Lawns planted this spring are likely to have new weeds growing along with the new lawn grasses.
- Most herbicide label directions have a recommended waiting period before it is safe to apply them without a risk of injuring the newly planted lawn, however, product label statements can vary greatly in this regard. Products will recommend to delay herbicide application until after the new lawn has matured. This waiting period is typically linked to the lawn having made enough growth to have been mowed 2, 3 or even 4 times.
- Mowing the lawn can help keep the weeds in check if summer temperatures make it unsafe to try and control weeds until fall.
- Hand weeding is always an option.
Most communities have sent out watering guidelines for summer water conservation. The very simple guidelines are where watering is only allowed every other day and is based upon the odd or even home street address. Efficient use of water is good for the community, your lawn and your budget!
- Homeowners vary significantly in lawn watering practices. Some will water to keep the lawn with a good green color while some will not water and allow their bluegrass lawns to go dormant, not watering much at all during extended dry periods.
- When lawns are permitted to go dormant in summer a light 1/4 to 1/2 inch watering every 3 weeks (if not supplied by an occasional rain event) will help the growing points stay alive to regrow with the cooler and moist fall conditions.
- If you do irrigate, the goal is to water deeply and infrequently.
- In the absence of rainfall in July and August applying about 1 to 1 1/2 inches of water per week will maintain good lawn color and growth. This weekly total should be broken up into 2 or 3 watering days per week.
- Soils vary greatly in how fast water can infiltrate into the soil. Water only as long as it takes for water to begin to runoff the lawn. Automatic sprinkler settings refer to this practice as “cycle and soak”. All zones are set for realistic, often shorter run times that avoid runoff. Then additional run times are repeated two or three times over the watering period that day to maximize the amount of water that moves into the soil.
The best time of day to water is early morning (less wind for better coverage and less evaporation, and the grass leaves dry quickly).

We had an existing grassland meadow behind the house that we wanted to convert to a wildflower meadow. I’m trying 2 ways to get flowers established. 1 – Mow down the grass, turn the ground over with a shovel, and transplant an existing flower and 2) Kill a large area of grass (approximately 10’x10′) with Roundup and then plant seeds. In either case, the grass is firmly established and wants to out-compete the flowers, so this will be challenging.
These first couple pictures are June 2016, where I transplanted some seeds I started indoors earlier in the spring. I cleared small spots with the weedeater, then turned the ground with a shovel, and planted the flowers. They seemed to take off OK, but not spectacularly.
Here’s a look at how these returned in 2017. Some came back, others look like they were annuals and didn’t re-seed.
The next attempt was in June 2017, where I cleared some areas with roundup:
I let the areas die for about a week, then roughed up the ground a bit with a garden rake. I then hand broadcast some wildflower seed into these areas. I used about 1/2 pound of a seed mix. I think it may have been a bit heavy, but I’m hoping to get a thick flower stand to help it compete with the grasses. I’ll post more photos of these areas through the summer.

Awhile back I had no lawn. I didn’t even have communal lawn that many apartment buildings boast. Outside my door was a sidewalk running up and down the bustling, city, (hipster even) street where I lived. I loved it. There were three coffee shops, numerous boutiques, tall apartment buildings and condos, and everything else a city provides.
I loved being in the midst of all that chaos. My son, five-years-old at the time appeared to love it as well, but I bet he wanted a lawn. I decided that whenever we could live in a real house, we’d make a great lawn…and a pickle ball court.
Now, five years later we have a yard. It’s a twenty acre yard pushed up against a mountain. And around the house, I have a lawn. Grew the sucker from seed. After a couple years of fighting with the sprinkler and stupid weeds, it actually looks like a lawn.
I mow it all the time. I put the setting on the lawn mower extra high so I can mow more often. Now I just need to make that pickle ball court.

BROWN DEER - Brown Deer's first-ever garden tour will allow patrons to explore six diverse outdoor environments from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, July 15.
The Brown Deer in Bloom event, organized by the Brown Deer Junior Woman’s Club and the Brown Deer Beautification Committee, will showcase some of the finest examples from 14 years of the Brown Deer in Bloom Beautification Awards program.
The self-guided tour will consist of five award-winning and regionally recognized residential gardens within the Village of Brown Deer, in addition to the Lynden Sculpture Garden in River Hills.
“We are very lucky to include the Lynden Sculpture Garden as a part of our tour," said Julie Cook Quirk, chair of the Brown Deer Beautification Committee. "This lovely place is a part of our greater community, and we’re delighted to offer an opportunity to explore it as part of the tour ticket price.”
The tour will show a variety of garden styles and techniques, including shady and heavily wooded; the artful use of conifers with beautiful underplanting; recycling and mulching methods; outdoor living spaces; use of whimsy and garden sculpture; and lots of colorful perennials, annuals and mature planting beds.
The Lynden Sculpture Garden offers the chance to explore a youth pollinator garden which attracts butterflies and bees, a bonsai garden, and more.
In addition to its variety, what makes this garden tour different from others in outlying communities is its accessibility, Quirk said. The homeowners at each tour stop will be available to answer guests’ questions during the tour.
“The residential gardens on the tour have been designed, planted and maintained by the homeowners, not by professional landscapers,” Quirk said. “Each one is a gorgeous labor of many years of love, and the homeowners themselves have accomplished it. You can see what they’ve done and take their ideas home with you for inspiration.”
Held rain or shine, the Brown Deer in Bloom event starts at the registration tent in front of the North Shore Fire Department, 4401 W. River Lane. Raffle tickets will also be sold for a variety of gardening items in front of the fire department.
Tickets can be purchased in advance for $8 at browndeerjuniorwomansclub.com or for $10 the day of the event. All proceeds will support local schools, area beautification projects and public landscaping efforts.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
August 22, 2022
VANCOUVER — ABC Vancouver announced today that during their first term in government, an ABC majority will commit to planting 100,000 trees to promote sustainability and address historic inequities.
“Historic bias in zoning practices have led to a heat distribution disparity of up to 20 degrees between Vancouver neighbourhoods,” said ABC Council candidate Mike Klassen “To begin addressing this inequity, ABC will plant 100,000 new trees over existing city targets during our first term in City Hall.”
Exclusionary zoning has had substantial negative consequences on marginalized communities across North America. ABC’s plan will promote equity and sustainability through natural climate solutions.
“It will take up to twenty years for adequate tree canopies to form and have an impact on heat in neighbourhoods, we need to act now,” continued Klassen. “During his term as Mayor, Gregor Robertson initiated a similar plan, ABC Vancouver would like to build upon that work.”
The ABC plan to plant 100,000 new trees in their first term of government will be one of the key pillars of ABC’s platform on sustainability. The plan is more ambitious than any tree planting policies being put forward by Mayor Stewart, the Vancouver Greens, or any other VDLC-endorsed party.
“100,000 new trees will ensure cooler, more enjoyable neighbourhoods and greater carbon sequestration in our city,” said ABC Council candidate Peter Meiszner. “As many existing trees in Vancouver are not being properly looked after, it’s critically important that we develop a plan to ensure all trees in our city receive adequate care.”
ABC supports exploring a wide variety of policy options to reduce Vancouver’s carbon footprint and make our city more sustainable.
“There are many opportunities for our city to promote climate resilience through other initiatives including depaving, greening roads and laneways, encouraging construction of green/white roofs, stream daylighting, and expanding greenway infrastructure,” concluded Meiszner. “Climate resilience and long-term sustainability must be central components of our city’s land use moving forward.”
ABC Vancouver has nominated nineteen candidates for the October 15th municipal elections; Ken Sim for Mayor; Lenny Zhou, Peter Meiszner, Brian Montague, Mike Klassen, and incumbent City Councillors Rebecca Bligh, Lisa Dominato, and Sarah Kirby-Yung for Council; Brennan Bastyovanszky, Laura Christensen, Angela Haer, Marie-Claire Howard, Scott Jensen, and Jas Virdi for Park Board; Alfred Chien, Preeti Fairdkot, Victoria Jung, Christopher Richardson, and Josh Zhang for School Board.

Groups dig in for new community garden at Wansbeck hospital
A new community garden at Wansbeck General Hospital has been officially opened.
Jim Mackey, chief executive of Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, cut the ribbon at the garden which has been developed over the last year by the trust in partnership with Groundwork NE & Cumbria, Northumbrian Water, Proctor and Gamble, voluntary and community groups, and local schools.
The low maintenance garden is for the recreational, educational and, where appropriate, therapeutic use by hospital staff, visitors, patients, community groups and other interested individuals and groups.
It includes raised beds of different heights planted with flowers and strawberries, mosaic paving showing different insects, animals and plants you might find in the garden, a willow arch, native wild flowers, a woodland walk, planted with fruit trees, a dry stone wall and a seating area.
Representatives from the partners and students from St Benedict’s Middle School in Ashington, and children from Kids 1st Nursery in the grounds of the hospital attended the opening.
Mr Mackey said: “As a trust, we’re committed to working with partners to support our communities and opening up opportunities for different groups and generations to come together.
“I’d like to thank everyone involved in the project for all their hard work so far and it’s great to see so many people from several organisations here at the opening.
“The idea for a garden was first raised some years ago so it is fantastic that it has developed into a space for everyone to enjoy and we look forward to it being used by many more people in the future.”
Ian McMinn, non-executive director for the trust and chairman of the charitable funds committee which funded the project, said: “Coming to hospital can be a stressful time for patients and their relatives and the garden provides a pleasant environment for everyone to enjoy, as well as to explore.
“I’m delighted that our charitable funds have been able to help develop the community garden for everyone’s benefit.”
Kay Bradshaw, area manager for Groundwork NE & Cumbria, said: “We must thank all the groups and individuals, schools and businesses that, with their hard work, made this garden happen. This is just the start, the garden will grow and it’s there for everyone.”
A team from Northumbrian Water Group was involved in the garden as part of their commitment to ‘Just an Hour’, their employee volunteering programme which sees employees volunteering their time and skills to help organisations in the communities they serve.
The team, led by Richard Davison, distribution operations team leader, were involved early in the project with the heavy digging work and laying the paving which cuts through the garden.
Richard said: “We were delighted to be asked to be part of this project, it really makes a difference and gives something back to the communities we work with.”
Students from King Edward VI High School in Morpeth have previously been involved in the garden however were unable to attend the opening.


I started by sketching out a plan that would maximize my garden but still leave enough room to walk around it. Here's what I did
1. Built 3 garden boxes (this time I used 2 2x8 for the sides and 4x4 for the posts)
3. placed the garden boxes down and ordered "Manderley Garden Mix Topsoil (This Blue Cube)" I ended up ordering 2 cubes and filled the boxes
4. I covered the outside with mulch and started planting.
Here are some of my plants so far


Like the shoes, to a perfect outfit, a proper mulching job can make or break the appearance of your landscape. All great lawns and gardens have a proper mulching job done to them in order to bring out their full beauty. One mulching job can last the entire season. Instead of skipping out or doing it your self-contact us to get fair pricing and a job well done. Your landscape defines your property so top it off with a great mulching.

Today, more builders are incorporating basic elements of universal design – such as wider doorways and lower light switches – and successfully marketing these as value-added features to homebuyers.
The subtle “cushion” of a wood floor system provides a more comfortable walking surface, putting less stress on people’s joints, legs and backs as they age. And, if the need arises to bypass stairs, a ramp or electric lift can create safe, easy entry to the home.
Considerations for aesthetics are paramount. Creative designs blend the ramp into the overall design of a home. Consider using a side, garage or rear entrance to the home, helping conceal its appearance from the street. A sloping lot may allow the existing landscape to reduce the required length of a ramp. Plants, shrubs and decorative fencing screens can be used to soften the visual appearance of a ramp.


|Stone monoliths are one of a kind, hand crafted to fit your specifications, that look and feel like real stone, that endure extreme weather conditions and are more affordable than real stone.
Our stone monoliths open more possibilities for uses where real stone may be required, yet limiting due to heavy weight for transportation, placement and instalment.
Heavy machinery is not only costly, but has restrictions of access due to existing fences, trees, existing landscape, property lines, overhead wires and the list goes on, which limits your preferred design potential.
Our stone monoliths are carried onto the site by several people with little or no disruption of existing landscape. Easier placement and installation compared to real stone now makes your landscape design more possible and more affordable than ever.
We create any size, endless possibilities than can be attached to existing places or stand alone works of art. For Gardens, landscape design, backyard patio, front yard, front entrance, indoor feature, ponds, water fountains, replicas' of ancient sculptures, boulders and blocks.


Many people love to take advantage of fair weather days by spending time in their backyard. If you are looking to upgrade your outdoor retreat, a few simple changes can make your space somewhere you love to be.
Have Good Seating
Whether you prefer to spend your time lounging in the sun, relaxing with a favorite book, or entertaining friends and family, having good outdoor seating is a must. When choosing the best outdoor furniture for your needs, be sure to think about how you plan to use your outdoor space. You may want to have many pieces that comprise a sitting area ideal for conversation. You may want to opt to add a comfortable spot for relaxing, or include a table and chairs so that you can enjoy dining outside.
Have an Accent
Adding an accent piece that creates ambiance and promotes conversation is a fun idea for your outdoor space. Consider installing a water feature such as a fountain. Get a metal sphere fire pit to add light and warmth to the evenings. A garden can provide a great point of interest in your yard. You can choose vegetables and enjoy the fresh food you grew yourself, or opt for flowers and see the birds and butterflies they bring.
Have an Activity
Having space to play in your backyard is a great way to bring everyone outdoors. One good thing to do is have open yard space for games such as croquet or bean bag toss. You can even opt to build something more permanent such as a bocce ball court or volleyball net or install a hot tub or pool.
If you aren’t making the most of your private outdoor space, a few additions can keep you coming outside. Think about how you want to use your space and the things you enjoy, and it will be fun to add them to your yard.


In partnership with the Edmonton Community Foundation (ECF) and Edmonton Native Plant Group, we created a new pollinator friendly garden downtown at the ECF. Our Protecting Pollinators project began here, with the installation of our first bee hotel, so it was only fitting that we would install a garden of native plants here too.
Back in May, we rescued plants with the Edmonton Native Plant Group and planted some at our Pipestone Creek site. This fall's plant rescue came just in the nick of time, as the expansion of Highway 28 continued on. We dug up plants from the sandy highway site, such as three flowered avens, sage, harebell, goldenrod and prairie crocus, and planted them at their new home next to the Edmonton Community Foundation. Donations of additional plants from the Edmonton Native Plant Group filled out the garden site, with many species that attract bees and butterflies.
Thank you to the Edmonton Community Foundation for their support, and to the Edmonton Native Plant Group for advice on designing and planting the garden, and for donating many more plants as well. And a huge thank you to the volunteers who came out to dig up the grass and plant the garden - we couldn't have done it without you!
This project was funded by a grant from the Commission for Environmental Cooperation.


For those that really want to bring the garden inside a garden conservatory is the perfect choice
Garden conservatories are perfect for garden lovers and horticultural enthusiasts as well as people who simply want a refuge away from the house. Whilst a conservatory is seen as an extension of the main property a garden conservatory is more often than not a free standing building usually found away from the house at the bottom of the garden. Popular designs for garden conservatories include the lantern and the gable shaped conservatory. Planning rules do apply to garden conservatories.
A garden conservatory is an extension of the garden indoors and they are usually used for what conservatories were originally intended- to grow flowers and plants and also to offer protection from the winter frost and other adverse weather. Garden conservatories also allow homeowners to grow plants or flowers out of season meaning even in late autumn you can sit in your conservatory and enjoy the fragrance and beauty of your favourite flower.
A garden conservatory need not solely be used for growing plants and flowers. It is also perfect for a home office with its location away from the main house offering a quiet retreat from the day to day activities of family life or it could alternatively be used as a playroom as we all know children should be seen but not heard.

The next big thing in indoor gardening
Elevated gardens are becoming the next big innovation in indoor gardens.
They can grow anywhere and are inexpensive and easy to install.
But in the last few years, there’s been a lot of hype around them, particularly in the United States.
Here are a few things to keep in mind: Elevated garden beds are only effective if there’s a lot more space.
“You can’t grow anything if there isn’t enough space,” says Tom Stroud, founder of Elevated Garden Beds.
“It’s the biggest myth about gardening: You can’t plant anything in a garden.
But that’s not really true.
You can put up plants, but you can’t have enough space.”
That’s because you can.
“In a garden, you have to have room for everything to grow,” Stroud says.
And if you’re growing plants in a low-growing area, you’re going to have to build up some additional space in order to get everything to flower.
There are a lot less people in your neighborhood than there are in a big, high-end urban center.
“If you grow in a high-rise apartment, it’s probably not going to be that easy to get the maximum yield,” Stoud says.
“And if you grow outdoors, the density will make it impossible.”
The best option for you, as a gardener, is to find a space that’s about 5 feet wide by 7 feet high.
The height is crucial, because it determines how big the plants will be.
“I grew my first three feet tall on a bed of rosemary,” Stoodles says.
You don’t want to be taller than that, and if you want a plant to flower, you want it to have enough room to flower and then grow.
If you’re planting in a backyard, be sure to put down a canopy.
“Put down some trees and shrubs,” Strousts says.
It will help reduce the amount of space you’ll have to put in the garden, since the trees and plants won’t all be planted at once.
If it’s raining, you can also add water, but Stroud recommends using a sprinkler system.
“A sprinkler can actually make the plants take up more space,” Strows says.
The only downside to elevated gardens is that you’ll need to keep an eye on your plants.
They will need to be watered once a day and are likely to die when that happens.
There’s also the fact that the elevation can make the garden look like a mini-palace.
“They’re kind of like a giant glass tower,” Stouth says.
Elevated gardening is also a lot easier to maintain than a garden of traditional plants.
Stroud has a website where you can plan out your garden.
You’ll have plenty of space, and it’ll look a lot better than a big house with lots of weeds and plants.
“The most important thing is to keep the space in a good shape,” Strews says.

Irrefutably connected to Terra Nostra Garden Hotel, Terra Nostra Botanical Park is the Ex-Libris of Furnas.
The bicentennial botanical gardens were created in 1780, when Thomas Hickling, the American Consul on S. Miguel Island, decided to have his summer home built in Furnas, which he named Yankee Hall.
However, it was in mid-XIXth century that these gardens, which first occupied 2 hectares (4 acres), underwent an incredible development, initiated by its subsequent owners, the Viscounts of Praia and later the Bensaude family.
Acquired in 1848 by the Viscount of Praia, the gardens had its first expansion: the water gardens were created, the dark tree alamedas and the first flower bushes were planted, and Yankee Hall was rebuilt into the Casa do Parque - Park House.
After 1872, the second Viscount of Praia continues his parents? work, namely beautifying the house, amplifying the gardens with the help of specialists, both English and Portuguese, who designed and built the serpentine canal, the caves, the avenues lined with Boxwood trees and trails filled with orange trees, non-existent today.
It was also during those years that the more emblematic trees were planted, which still stand massive and tall today, once imported from North America, Australia, New Zealand, China and South Africa.
In the 1930s, Terra Nostra Botanical Park, owned at the time by Vasco Bensaude, who viewed the park as an essential complement of the then recently opened Terra Nostra Hotel, is once again amplified to its present size of 12.5 hectares or 30 acres.
Vasco Bensaude had such vast knowledge of botany and gardening, that he hired Scottish Gardener John McEnroy to help him recover the botanical park. Simultaneously, Casa do Parque ? Park House is also renovated, along with the iron water swimming pool, and an extension of works involving the pathways, ponds and plantations of the gardens.
The conservation work and care of the grounds have been maintained throughout generations of the Bensaude family, and the most recent initiatives have been the construction of gardens, specifically designed for collections of endemic species, ferns, cycads, and annual flowers and plants. The camellia garden itself encompasses more than 300 varieties in existence at the Park.

GPS Art as a Tool to Read Urban and Suburban Brackish Waters.
“Circle Walk” is a series of artworks that record the expression of the city through walking. The present state of the city, born as an extension of human activity, is captured by GPS logger.
The experience of using GPS to draw around the world as a canvas led me to think about urbanization and its processes, and I began to work on it as a theme.
All Circle Walks are regular circles with a radius of 3.1415 km centered on the center of the community. This distance is the brackish water area between the city center and the suburbs.
By keeping a common distance from the center, the expansion of each city and the nature of resistance are visualized. Along the way, residential areas, schools, golf courses, factories, warehouses, fields, and wooded areas …… coexist with human and natural activities, creating a unique expression.
The same city can also be a different circle depending on the day you walk through it. Roads grow daily, facilities open and close, and off-limits areas due to weather and construction …….
The interplay of those interferences and Yassan’s walking draws the most perfect circular path in the city that day.

TREE PRUNING WIGAN, GREATER MANCHESTER
TREE HEIGHT REDUCTION & PRUNING SERVICES
LTC Tree Surgery of Wigan, Greater Manchester can provide a variety of tree pruning services for customers in Bolton, Preston, Stockport and the Manchester area.
There’s many reasons why a tree may need to be pruned. The tree in your garden may have grown to such a height over the years that it’s started to become an issue, either directly damaging your property or presenting an imminent threat in the event of a storm or bad weather.
Perhaps you planted a tree years ago that has grown to take up more space than you anticipated and you want to reclaim your garden back.
If you have a low-hanging tree, such as a weeping willow, that overhangs quite low, our tree surgeons can perform a crown lift on it. This involves removing the lower branches whilst retaining the overall shape of the tree, allowing access underneath for mowing or enjoying the shaded canopy that a tree, such as a willow, provides.
CROWN REDUCTION AND THINNING
Trees that have grown too top heavy can become dangerous. There are two ways to tackle this issue:
Crown Reduction involves cutting of the branches to reduce the size whilst keeping the overall shape, resulting in a more manageable tree.
Crown Thinning is the preferred method of making a tree safer in high winds. It involves the removal of selected branches to reduce the density of the crown. Reducing the top end weight of the tree through thinning results in less wind resistance which improves the durability of the tree during a storm.
Another benefit of crown thinning is that it also allows more light to pass through the tree, which will no doubt please homeowners and their neighbours alike!
NEED YOUR TREE PRUNING?
If you live within Greater Manchester, Cheshire, Lancashire or Merseyside, give our certified tree surgeons a call today on 01942 367170 for a quotation on your tree pruning requirements.
We will assess which pruning solution is most suitable for your needs and, most importantly, will have the least impact on the health of your tree, keeping it in optimum condition.

New pergola range added
Greenwood’s new bioclimatic pergola range turns sunny terrace and outdoor areas into a more usable space, all year round.
The pergola, already proven in practice elsewhere in Europe, is the ideal solution for restaurants, bars and cafes that have a sunny terrace; and for homeowners who want to extend the use of their outdoor space for more months of the year. For premises that need to comply with an indoor smoking ban, it provides a stylish solution that gives customers a comfortable, dry outdoor space for them to enjoy.
The electrically operated, weather resistant pergola can act as a solar shade in the height of the summer, reducing solar heat gain and the danger of sunburn while still allowing users of the space beneath to benefit from cooling breezes. Yet the clever design of the pergola also means it is an effective, water resistant roof during inclement weather, providing shelter for those who head outside to enjoy the open air, or perhaps to relax with a cigarette.
Easily fitted, the highly customisable design can be provided in a range of colours. Its louvres are mounted on a sturdy frame and are electrically opened and closed, allowing natural convection while restricting just the right amount of solar gain. Watertight seals ensure weather tightness, while the motorised control system is smooth and quiet in operation. Rainwater can be collected, or drains via one of the supporting columns to runoff or a nearby drain.
Optional accessories include LED lighting, infrared electrical heaters, bluetooth music control system with built in speakers, awnings, blinds and weather sensors.
The pergola fits easily onto any type of paving or base material, and for larger areas, multiple units can be linked together. Planning permission will not normally be necessary for the structure.Back to News/Blog
