Pay Consideration to Soil Depth
Tree roots do their “grazing” close to the floor of the soil, not down deep. The highest two ft of the soil supplies over fifty % of the water and vitamins for good, wholesome progress. Deeper roots collect some vitamins and moisture throughout droughts and assist anchor the tree. Tree roots are lazy – they’ll feed the place the eatin’ is finest and the simplest. For those who put a giant pile of compost and fertilizer in a planting gap, the roots will merely colonize the outlet and fortunately pig out on the handy feast. If the aim is to naturalize a tree, don’t serve it an enormous “breakfast” after which anticipate it to search out lunch and dinner exterior the planting gap all by itself. Save your compost for the greens.

The Domino Barrenwort is a fast-growing perennial that thrives in the shade. The large, delicate white blooms have extended spurs with pink centers. The blooms are on thin stems and almost appear to float above the shrub. Epimedium 'Domino' is a prolific bloomer, and once acclimated, you can expect the plant to be covered in flowers during the spring. The oblong dark green foliages come to a point and feature red mottling for another pop of color.
This plant will look absolutely amazing wherever it is planted, but the Domino Barrenwort looks particularly stunning when used in mass plantings or as a groundcover. Beds and borders are other locations that give this medium-sized plant plenty of opportunities to thrive and add color and style to an outdoor area. The Domino Barrenwort is a perennial in USDA zones 5 through 9, and this plant isn’t a favorite of forging animals, like deer and rabbits.
Domino Barrenwort Care
Plant this shade-loving perennial in an area that experiences full shade. The ideal soil will have dry to medium moisture retention, and it is time to water when the top couple of inches of soil feel dry. Otherwise, the soil should be fertile and have an acidic pH.
This plant may push out another flush or round of flowers with proper care. Propagate the Domino Barrenwort in the fall through division. Trim the foliage back in the late winter or early spring to prepare the plant for new growth and a productive growing season.
Domino Barrenwort Spacing
This shrub will grow 18 to 22 inches tall and spread 24 to 30 inches. Domino Barrenwort plants can be spaced as close as 12 inches apart but leave more space if using the plant as a specimen or focal point.

Riverfront Park Master Plan: http://www.billingsparks.org/wp-content/uploads/RFPMP.pdf
Norm Schoenthal Island is Yellowstone River Park Association’s most popular success story. It is made of City and State land within the Riverfront Park complex and is covered by the Riverfront Park Master Plan. Norm’s Island has over two miles of trails and is a popular walking spot, with or without dogs. Flooded annually by the Yellowstone River in the Spring, the island is a good example of floodplain ecology. YRPA has spent several seasons eradicating invasive Russian olive trees on the island to ensure the natural cottonwood succession.

Complete Outdoor Kitchen: Scottsdale
Grill, Boil, Fry, or Bake
If you’re going to have an outdoor kitchen, Scottsdale, you’ll probably want to do more than grill some steaks. These clients have what they need to cook almost anything on their beautiful new patio. And they can enjoy doing so well into the night with the lighting design we’ve installed in their new kitchen.
Naturally, the patio paving and outdoor kitchen should have smooth visual appeal. Here we used the same Ivory Beige Travertine on everything. Contrast is often wonderful, but so is fluidity, and in a small space it makes you feel less closed in. The split-face travertine used under the bar counter does include a few dramatic darker stones, but it makes the texture stand out without taking over. Which is why we only used the light travertine brick for the pizza oven enclosure’s face. It already commands attention towering above the cooking surface. You don’t want it to take over.
The pizza oven is a slide-in gas unit whose sleek stainless steel front blends with all the other appliances. It’s central placement gives the cook convenient access the under-cabinet refrigerator and sink on the left, along with the cooktop and grill to the right. Prep area is also available on both sides of the oven, which with precision heat control allows you to bake, roast, or sear with perfection. Something a rustic outdoor pizza oven makes challenging.
There are three clearly defined outdoor living spaces along the back of this patio. The outdoor kitchen sits next to a handsome fire pit faced with matching travertine brick that the clients chose Cobalt Fire Glass as the fill. A gorgeous color that makes lounging around the fire extra pleasant. Placing the fire pit in the center of their patio space allows enjoying the flames from any seat in the backyard.
On the opposite corner from the kitchen sits a lovely raised spa faced with the same travertine we used on the patio. However, our clients don’t have to fire up the central fire pit to have flames when enjoying their spa. The new spa enclosure has it’s own channel fire pits built into the back wall. One on each side, and both are filled with the same Cobalt Fire Glass.
Look how lush this outdoor living space appears without the travertine pavers running into a sea of granite. Adding synthetic grass between the plantings and patio softens all the stone surfaces and brings a lot of brilliant color to the yard. No matter where you sit on this patio, the view is both soothing and beautiful.
What’s in your dream outdoor kitchen, Scottsdale?
Working with Desert Crest can bring everything you want from your yard to life. And we can help you with planning the work flow as professionally as the visual appeal.
We’d love to hear all about what’s in your new outdoor kitchen. Let’s chat about all the possibilities. Schedule your design consultation today.


The Westmorland Dales Landscape Partnership Scheme has secured a grant of £2.27million. The funding will go towards conserving and celebrating the geology, wildlife, cultural heritage and limestone landscapes of the area. The scheme will allow more people to connect with and enjoy the landscape. Twenty-one projects focusing on the natural and cultural heritage of the Dales will take place.
Diverse heritage and natural beauty
Nestled between the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales, Westmorland Dales officially became part of the Yorkshire Dales National Park in 2016. It boasts 79 scheduled monuments, 19 Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs) and two national nature reserves.
[quote=Ros Kerslake, Chief Executive of HLF]“Thanks to the money raised by the National Lottery, we have an opportunity to reveal what makes the Westmorland Dales such a special place.”[/quote]
Extending over 200 sq km, the Westmorland Dales is home to a mix of habitats and an unspoilt pattern of historical settlements and features.
Unspoilt and unique
Carl Lis, Chairman, Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority, said: “Following the recent designation of the Westmorland Dales as part of the National Park, this wonderful news gives us the opportunity to create a strong foundation for its future. The resources will help us to promote its special qualities, its tranquil and unspoilt character, and its unique heritage.”
Ros Kerslake, Chief Executive of HLF, said: “Thanks to the money raised by the National Lottery, we have an opportunity to reveal what makes the Westmorland Dales such a special place. This scheme will help to reveal the cultural and natural influences that have shaped the landscape and will provide opportunities for communities, visitors and volunteers to celebrate and share in this remarkable story.”
The scheme is due to start in spring 2019 and will run for four years.

The Weston County Natural Resource District, the Crook County Natural Resource District, Wyoming State Forestry, and Wyoming Game and Fish have partnered in applying for funds through the Wyoming Natural Resource Trust.
We are not taking applications at this time, but if you are interested in thinning to improve habitat, please contact our office.
Goals & Objectives
The objective of this partnership is to mitigate mutual resource concerns across jurisdictional boundaries throughout northeastern Wyoming by creating more resilient and sustainable ecosystems. The goal is to improve mule deer and sage-grouse habitats by implementing non-commercial thinning to increase understory standing biomass. Thinning treatments benefit mule deer and sage-grouse habitats by providing structural diversity and by increasing the variety and biomass of forages. Projects will follow guidance provided by wildlife and forestry practitioners to ensure specifications and standards implemented are beneficial to wildlife habitat improvement.
Summary of Project
These landscape-scale projects will result in healthier ecological lands with more diverse species composition, increased structural and age diversity of plant communities, and improved riparian and wildlife habitats. Thinning noncommercial-sized trees will increase the quantity and quality of forage and improve forest stands by balancing structural stage diversity; reducing meadow encroachment will diversify forbs and grasses; and removing juniper and pine from sagebrush-steppe habitats will decrease raptor perches and predator shelters.
Meadow Enhancement, Conifer Encroachment, Thinning


National Conifer Week takes place on September 24 – October 2 2016. Garden centres across the country will be highlighting conifers with eye catching displays, demonstrating the variety and choice available.
A statement from the Horticultural Trades Association (HTA) draws attention to conifers’ ability to provide structure and colour all year round, saying:
“From a small balcony with room for a container, to acres of grounds with space, conifers can add another dimension to any garden. Conifers can also add year-round drama, whether as a backdrop, a standalone feature, or in a border with other plants.
“They are extremely versatile, coming in an amazingly diverse range of shades, textures, shapes and sizes. A potted conifer can be used to brighten up a doorstep or balcony, whilst planted conifers can create height and add fantastic accent pieces to any garden.”

A significant urban regeneration project for Roscommon Town has taken a major step forward.
Roscommon County Council has applied for Part 8 planning permission for the 'Putting the Spokes Back In The Wheel Project''.
The plans would see new park and cycle ways along the Circular Road from the Lanesboro Street Roundabout to the Athlone Road Roundabout.
Included in the works is the creation of several controlled and uncontrolled crossings on the busy route as well as the demolition of the existing Library building and the redevelopment of the parking area next to the Roscommon Arts centre.
Public realm improvement works are also part of the plans on Church Street, Goff Street, the N61 and N63, as well as on Main Street.
Part 8 planning applications are plans submitted by the council itself, and require the seal of approval from Councillors.
The project was allocated 9.2 million euro in funding under the Urban Regeneration and Development Fund in 2021.

One of the most compelling advantages of using interlocking pavers is their innate structural integrity. They’re designed for a snug, friction fit that imparts rigidity and performance. Once your eyes take in the beauty of the individual pavers, they may be drawn to what’s helping to add strength and complete the overall look — the material that goes between the pavers. It’s either a subtle aspect of the overall patio or driveway you’re admiring, and serves a solely functional purpose, or it’s also being used to impact the overall aesthetic. It could be what takes your landscape project to the next level with eye-popping visual flair.
There are many jointing material types, colors, and textures. Each type has its own appearance and structural merits. Other beneficial properties offered by various jointing compounds/fillers fall into the categories of drainage, settling, weed prevention, and maintenance.
Choosing the right material for the joints in your paver project involves a mix of considerations of your personal preferences and the trade-offs each material presents. The choice is ultimately dependent on knowing which materials work best with which textures and joint sizes. Your Unilock Authorized Contractor will be able to make the right recommendation for you. It used to be that what goes in the joints in any tiled structure was more or less predetermined, sometimes by tradition, and sometimes simply by the limited materials available. Think mortar for bricks and natural stone, and, of course, grout for tile. But the rigid stoicism of the past has been replaced by a far more adventurous freedom to design and express your tastes, unfettered by tradition and norms, and with more color and material options than ever.
How Jointing Material Can Transform Your Look
Polymeric sands and jointing compounds are the overwhelming front-runners as the go-to materials to finish joints on horizontal paver surfaces. They are versatile and come in a variety of designer colors.
Even the most fertile imagination can use a little sensory inspiration to see what’s possible. A great place to start is our design catalog. This online gallery boasts a visual portfolio of projects that convey a variety of visual effects that can be created with joint material. The right sand tone can provide high contrast to accentuate the color of pavers and highlight the layout, or subtly blur the lines between pavers.
Blending the joints into the pavers is a design strategy unto itself, and can result in a gorgeous paver project. A great example is the Series pavers with their compelling blend of varicolored texture gradients. And with their more complex and subtle surface variations, deemphasizing the joints can create an unbroken canvas of exotic hues and tones across your driveway, patio, or walkway.
The Practical Side
Installation, maintenance, and repair issues might not be quite as invigorating as color and design, but they’re important considerations all the same.
Years ago, basic jointing sand was the only joint material available. As it wore away, issues with weeds could arise. If you choose a basic sand, we recommend that you use a joint stabilizing sealer and be prepared to replenish the sand when needed.
Traditional polymeric sand is a special sand that stays in place longer because it is combined with a binding agent. It is installed dry and then moistened gradually to complete saturation. However, it’s not right for every project and needs to be installed with care to prevent hazing. Be sure to speak to your contractor about which joint material is best suited for the paver you have chosen.
Making the Right Choice
Our manufacturing innovations have created low-maintenance, durable, weather-resistant pavers that stand the test of time and that are renowned for their unique beauty. We go beyond our core duty to partner with customers, and act as a resource and partner through every aspect of their landscape project. Unilock offers extensive resources to inspire, educate, and help you visualize the transformations and additions you’ll be making to your landscape. We can also connect you with a Unilock Authorized Contractor who can help you decide on the right color and material. We’ve been partnering with contractors for over 45 years to ensure they have access to the right materials and equipment for the job, every step of the way.
The joint material is one way to bring out the pure beauty of the landscape materials you’ve chosen. It’s worth taking a close look at what will go between the stones and pavers, because it’s your project, your style, and your oasis that you and your family will escape to for years to come.

RODLEY NATURE RESERVE: Avian ‘palm island’ set for completion
The redevelopment of the duck marsh at Rodley Nature Reserve in a bid to improve habitat diversity for wetland species in the area is nearing completion.
The Yorkshire Water sponsored relandscaping work which will transform the area and create different water depths to promote species diversity, is in its final stages.
The scheme, which is a partnership between Yorkshire Water, Rodley Nature Reserve and Fountains Forestry, has also extended the northern bank towards the Willow Path hide, with the excavated land to be reused form a bank at the southern perimeter to provide suitable habitat for establishing a water vole presence.
Richard Hampshire, nature reserve warden at Yorkshire Water, said: “Rodley Nature Reserve has become a diverse location for wildlife over the last 20 years through the hard work of all involved.
“This project is part of the company’s Water Works for Wildlife initiative to deliver biodiversity enhancement to 15 designated local wildlife sites across its estate in the next four years. These sites are often in urban settings which don’t have the glamour of our upland habitats or SSSI’s – however they often have some of the rarest wildlife and greatest community passion and accessibility.
“We’re pleased to be nearing the completion of the work to reshape the duck marsh. The work will benefit existing species that visit the site but also help attract new wetland species in the future.”
It is hoped the project will attract species including Little Ringed Plover, Common Tern and passage wading birds on new spits and islands likened to Dubai’s palm island.
Dave Nesham, trustee director at Rodley Nature Reserve Trust, commented: “The Trust has regularly considered the effectiveness of the Duck Marsh habitat and now, in partnership with Yorkshire Water and Fountains Forestry, its redevelopment will significantly improve its diversity and subsequent visitor experience. The investment by Yorkshire Water and their technical assistance is greatly appreciated.”

Developers broke ground Monday, and the long-awaited construction of the 1 million-square-foot Promenade at Castle Rock will begin within 30 days.
• The Front Porch, the gateway to the project that will have a farmers market ambiance;

• Town Square, a “grand plaza” with flowering trees, a hearth, trench water features and gardens;
• The Village, an “intimate” dining row.
Alberta and Forum purchased the 200-acre property, southwest of The Outlets at Castle Rock, for $44 million from a local seller in what the joint venture described as one of the largest suburban land acquisitions in the country.
Retailers are expected to open at Promenade starting in 2015.
Mayor Paul Donahue said Castle Rock has made it a priority to “bring new amenities for our residents and give more people reason to visit our terrific town. We’re excited this project is moving forward for our community.”

For designing the Ford F 150 Floor Mats the very first ideas are to make gardens that are miniature. This tiny yard suggests a green location that is about the top of the house as being a minuscule location with numerous kinds of plants that are able to summarize a beautiful green location and beautiful. Then you can certainly also create a city park with no less lovely view for the town park, if you have been encouraged in the location park.
Some stunning crops you'll be able to pick like bonsai trees are vibrant blossoms, small, and grasses that may meet up with the area place inside the park facing your property. The idea that both Ford F 150 Floor Mats can be a playground that is not always green. This implies design or a home yard design that could employ additional ideas, making a small swimming, that will be not a lot of wear green plants, but only to improve water's big event and electrical power inside.
Along with the small share you can also create sebuaha little waterfall or possibly a modest fountain that's applied with normal ideas, like the usage of wood as being a water flushed or by the usage of rocks, where the water is going to be proven more evidently too.

But, at the same time, it is important that you know what’s in trend! So, here we are with the top paving trends that you should check out in 2021.
Five Modern Paving Trends You Must Consider in 2021
The growing affinity for minimalism has influenced many of our customers to choose paving styles that keep their outdoors simple. The best thing about going minimalistic with the paving is that it leaves ample space for future changes. It gels with almost all kinds of houses and never misses out on aesthetics too. We also like how serene it makes the outdoor look, especially when the pavement is coupled with good lighting.
Speaking of lighting, we have shared a list of top lighting ideas that can breathe life into your house outdoors. Lighting is functional and also adds to the aesthetics of the entire outdoor as it draws the visitor’s attention to the different elements you have put in there. In-laid lighting, however, is the best thing ever as it has great versatility. If you are looking to add lighting to your driveway in 2021, do give our latest blog post a quick read. It will definitely help.
Natural Stone Paving
We have worked on the natural stone too and have found it easier to work with especially when the customer has extreme customization requirements. The contemporary and ageless look you get with natural stone is exquisite. We highly recommend it for paving your patios, walkways, and outdoor firepits. Want to know the best thing about natural stone? They come in a range of colors!
Wood Effect Paving
Wood effect paving is a gift of Scandinavian interior styling that has gained popularity in recent years. These are very much popular among people that have an eye for dark earthy tones and natural patterns. The wood used in such paving automatically gives a natural yet stylish look and feel. We highly recommend you go for wood effect paving that has a light and modern feel.
Monochrome is Forever
The monochrome design never dies. Being the key 2021 paving trend, it can be put to work both for interior designing as well as outdoor designing. The chic and contemporary look it brings to the outdoor is worth it. It also is perfect if you are looking to go for something minimalistic.

A regional treasure: Crystal Springs Rhododendron Garden in Portland’s SE Sellwood-Moreland neighborhood.
In an out-of-this-world setting surrounding southeast Portland’s spring-fed Crystal Springs Lake, you’ll find this fairy-tale garden, replete with ponds, meadows, woods, marshes, waterfalls, streams, footbridges, and 100 species of birds.
With more than 2,500 rhododendrons, azaleas, and other complementary plantings, Crystal Springs Rhododendron Garden is a remarkable achievement.
RELATED: HOMES FOR SALE IN SELLWOOD-MORELAND
All plants in the garden were donated or funded by friends of the garden.
Volunteers from the Portland Chapter of the American Rhododendron Society, Friends of Crystal Springs Rhododendron Garden, and the Master Gardeners program maintain the grounds and manage educational programs and special events.
In early spring through summer, you’ll find a spectacular display of rhododendrons, many varieties rarely seen in the Pacific Northwest. In fall, companion trees add their dramatic color.
William S. Ladd, two-term Portland mayor in the 1800s, originally owned this property, called Crystal Springs Farm.

Reed College students referred to the property as Shakespeare Island because of the Shakespearean plays once performed there.
In 1950, abandoned and overgrown with brush and blackberries, the property became the site of a display and test garden, developed by the Portland Chapter of the American Rhododendron Society.
Through efforts of Portland Chapter members and other volunteers, and with the support of Park Superintendent C.P. Keyser, the garden grew and flourished.
The first rhododendron show was held in 1956, and the garden was officially named Crystal Springs Rhododendron Garden in 1964.
The oldest rhododendron in today’s garden was planted over 100 years ago.
The original garden was designed by landscape architect, Ruth Hansen. Landscape architect, Wallace K. Huntington, designed the portion of the garden known as the Peninsula in 1977.

The rocks used to build the waterfalls and other features were gathered from Mt. Hood and Mt. Adams.

Just made my once every few years visit to the Chelsea Flower Show. It does all feel like deja vu and
|Pepa's GArden celebrating Karst landscapes of Slovenia - inspiration for dry British gardens?|
|Part of Sarah Price's garden for The Telegraph, accomplished, but trouble is everyone was doing this this year, mostly natives.|
|I love this kind of touch - Sarah Price again|
|Thomas Hoblyn design - very good for instant impact, but wouldn't last a year in garden conditions before they'd begin to compete each other out.|
What is so odd about Chelsea is the way it illustrated the zeitgeist at work. It is almost as if all the designers sit down and decide what the theme is going to be, as so often gardens are remarkably similar. My first thoughts this year was ‘this is comfort gardening’, in a time of recession and uncertainty, everybody is making gardens which are safe and traditional, an impression reinforced by the muted colouring, the pastels, the lack of strong or vibrant colours. So many gardens featured intermingled naturalistic style planting - which made me feel very vindicated in having been promoting precisely this for so many years. Has the ‘New Perennial Garden’ finally come home? Maybe it has. Trouble is, after a while, it began to look a bit samey - this year’s plant seems to be Cow Parsley and as a grass substitute Carex muskingumensis. The problem is with timing, it’s actually too early to get many later-flowering plants in, so the plant palette feels a bit restricted. A lot of native wildflowers, for which the season is perfect, but since our flora is a limited one, that does not make for much variation. On the whole though planting was very well done, sophisticated and a lot of it would actually have worked in garden conditions.
It is of course relatively straightforward to get the intermingled look with plants from nurseries, crammed in far more tightly than they ever would be in the garden. The garden is a greater test, as clumps expand, plants compete, some spread, some don’t. What would really be a trial of design skill would be this: to design a Chelsea Garden which looked like it had been planted three or five years ago.


Edith Katz is a designer working in Sante Fe, New Mexico creating beautiful gardens that are uniquely appropriate to their desert location. Perusing her portfolio, this is hands down my favorite. I love the simple mix – White cosmos, arid grasses, and beautiful and imaginative stone work. Not sure of the design brief, but it appears it has something to do with Turtles – Tortugas.

Red Hills- StrataWeb geocells installation
The purpose of using geocells is to create slope erosion protection. The unique 3D geo synthetic design solution is used along steep slopes to increase the resisting forces.
The textured surface of the cell walls as well as the perforation helps holding the infill material within the cell. This infill material can then be planted or grassed to create an effective and aesthetically pleasing stabilised slope.
Evergreen Landcare installed 3000m2 of the 400mm deep geocell on the Red Hill Project to batters with a gradient of 1:1 and 1:2.
The team enjoyed the challenge of this technical install and are now highly competent and economical. Get in touch if you would like further pricing on this product.


Welcome to Melissa’s dream garden, completed in 2021 after taking the Design Your 4 Season Garden course.
Melissa lives in Zone 6B near the Boston area. She lives in a beautiful home, but the yard was a blank slate. She dreamed of having a beautiful cottage-style garden, filled with flowers. But, while she tried to plant things here and there, it never felt successful..
She didn’t think she was capable of designing a landscape.
“Periodically I would buy a few plants at the nursery, haphazardly plant them, pay little attention to them and of course nothing resembling a garden resulted,” she said. “I had no idea how to design a garden.”
She thought the only solution was to hire a professional, so she budgeted about $15,000 for the project. But, the landscape design company seemed really disinterested in the job, noting they were very busy with other projects and she may have to wait 4-5 months. In addition, they estimated that she’d need at least $18,000, depending on the specifics of the project.
Annoyed with their fees, delays and general disinterest, she told the landscape designers to take a hike. She began to wonder, “Why can’t I do this myself?”
Despite her years of unsuccessful planting efforts, Melissa took to books and the internet to learn more about designing her own landscape. She kept wondering why there wasn’t a course to learn how to do this.
“And then, by a stroke of luck, I found YOU,” she said.
Melissa enrolled in the Design Your 4 Season Garden course and immediately got to work planning her garden!
“I have been working very hard every night and I am extremely energized to give this my best shot,” she wrote in an email to me.
While she was committed to her project and full of energy and enthusiasm, it didn’t come without challenges. Namely about money mindset, finding time to complete the work and having the confidence to design the plans.
Her mindset on the total cost of the project was a really important factor.
“Having that big price tag in my head made me realize that if I am going to do this, I need to pay for plants. So I pretty much just said it’s going to cost me, but a ton less than the landscaper. And, it’s also going to come out soooo much better. …That mindset was critical because, as a friend told me last week, “you buy ten plants at the nursery and it’s $200!” If I didn’t have that “it’s gonna cost so don’t be cheap” mindset, I really couldn’t do it, at least not on the scale I did.”
If you’re struggling with price issues, a great exercise is to get quotes from local design companies. Then, do some of your own research on the cost of plants and equipment.
This will give you a baseline to work from so you can create your dream garden without being blindsided by the cost.
Melissa decided to use some of the money she budgeted to prepare her garden beds. Local landscapers dug out her beds, tilled in good soil and gave her the perfect blank slate to install her new garden.
This was definitely worth the investment, she says, as it cut down her prep time and labor for the project so she could focus on the design.
While taking the course, Melissa regularly emailed me her plans and asked for feedback every step of the way. At one point of the process, she wrote,
“I am terrified about the next step of mapping out layout, but I think I will just dive in and try.”
It’s amazing what you’re capable of if you just trust the process and do the work. She credits the step-by-step format in the course with keeping her project on track.
“It was way harder than I even thought it would be, and I expected it to be hard. The lighting, the soil, working around what you already have combined with each plant and its size, light requirements….it’s just a lot. It absolutely requires a course and I was surprised that I never found one until I found yours.”
Melissa used the course to design two garden beds in her landscape. The first was a challenging, muddy side yard that she wanted to turn into a 22’ long walkway. The space is shady and flanked by a fence and a deck. The biggest challenge was that the space was so narrow, leaving space for only 2’ wide beds on either side of the walkway.
The second garden bed was the entire border of her backyard, along the fence line. This bed was about 95% empty when she started. Different sun exposures and the sheer size of this bed at 48’ wide and 15’ deep made it a daunting task.
The side was a total mud pit before creating this garden. The bed goes past her deck on the left and leads to the backyard. This is a super narrow area with stepping stones in the middle and two long beds that are 2’x22’.
- Considerations – Super narrow area with two, narrow and long beds. Lots of shade limits plant choices.
- Size – Each bed is 2’ wide by 22’ deep, separated by a walkway in the center.
- Light – Part-sun to shade.
- Color Scheme – Pink & Chartreuse
- Main Season of Interest – Summer
Using what she learned in the course, Melissa used a harmonious and exciting combination of evergreen shrubs, perennial plants and groundcovers to create this magical woodland walkway.
Not only is the combination of plants beautiful, but it’s also unique and shows off her personality so well. She adds,
“I loved your course and I love your approach to garden design. It just makes sense and you are a wonderful teacher.”
Back Garden Design
This back garden bed was 95% empty before Melissa’s new garden bed was installed. In early spring, more than half of the area was grass with an old scruffy tree in the left corner. The area left a lot to be desired and Melissa was determined to use what she’s learned to turn this into the space she’s always dreamed about.
- Considerations – Low fences on each side and a high fence in the back. Several existing trees to design around (arborvitae, crab apple). Difficult to use the same plants because different areas of the garden bed get different amounts of sun.
- Size – 6’ fence. 48’ wide by 15’ at its deepest point.
- Light – Primarily part-sun. Full sun on the left side with a long stretch of afternoon sun. The rest has dappled, part sun.
- Style – Cottage
- Color Scheme – Pink, Burgundy and Chartreuse
- Main Season of Interest – Summer
Melissa struggled at first to create repetition and flow in this garden bed, mostly because of the varying amounts of sun that parts of the bed receive. But, she was able to use what she learned in the course to choose the right plants for the right places, while still making this garden bed feel cohesive yet unique. She used a combination of several different evergreens mixed with flowering shrubs, perennial plants, even grasses, ferns, sedges and vines.
The step-by-step format of the course enabled her to make lots of different plant selections with confidence. The end result is a gorgeous, professional looking garden that incorporates all of the plants and colors that Melissa loves.
Continuing Her Gardening Journey
Melissa’s love of garden design didn’t stop after taking the course! In 2022, she continued using the skills she learned to design several new garden beds. These included: the side of her backyard, a bed near the back of her house and a sun-loving garden bed on the other side of her house.
To see all of Melissa’s gardens, including the new side yard design, watch this video!
A Massive Transformation
After taking the course, Melissa not only has a beautiful garden, but a new hobby that will continue to reward her as the years go by. She adds,
“It’s been quite a life-changing experience (thanks to you!). Looking at my “before” photos right now is pretty shocking.”
I asked Melissa how she feels about garden design and how things may have changed for her since she’s taken the course. Here’s what she said.
“A MASSIVE transformation took place. I designed a beautiful garden from scratch and planted it. I know all of the steps and considerations needed to design a garden. I loved Amy’s step by step approach. It was so logical and practical and effective. I always wondered why there wasn’t a course like this, and then I found it! If you are a gardening novice and are remotely considering this course, take it. You will be happy you did.”
Melissa kept track of the cost of her plants and other purchases like a wheelbarrow, hoses, accessories, hardscaping (large stepping stones and cobbles), soil, soil delivery and a day of labor. In the end, the cost of her new garden was half the price of paying the landscape design company.
“I told a friend I feel like I had a baby. I love it and want to ‘baby’ it. And watch it grow. I am so excited to see it blossom. And I am so proud of it. Every plant was my choice. Every location was my choice. I had a plan and redid the plan and evolved the plan, but in the end, it came out as it was supposed to.”
Melissa had budgeted to pay about $15,000 for a professional landscape design. When the company came back at $18,000 and seemed disinterested in the project, she decided to try it herself.
She made all of the mistakes that beginner gardeners make, such as buying pretty plants and plopping them into the ground without much thought in advance about design. Not surprisingly, her efforts were unsuccessful. Then she turned to books and websites to try to learn more and fix some of the issues she was having.
But, she says,
Melissa noted that the price of the course is well with it, especially if you’re planning to create multiple gardens like she did. While you have to invest your time, lots of elbow grease and a substantial amount of money on plants (more than you’ll expect), learning how to DIY your own landscape is a really fun and energizing experience.
“I really hope I can help you and help others find you and try your course because it has been truly life-changing for me. THANK YOU, thank you, thank you!”MELISSA
I am so grateful to hear about Melissa’s experience and see her beautiful work. I often smile, knowing that I’ve converted another person into a lifelong gardener. And I think that may be what I am called to do in life. What I’m supposed to do.
Gardening is a hobby that continues to give back to me each and every year. I know it will reward me for the rest of my life and I’m so glad I planted that first plant in the ground (so very many) years ago. I want everyone else to experience the joy and excitement of garden design, too… just like Melissa was able to.
So, if you have an itch for gardening and are at all interested in design, I do hope you’ll join me in the Design Your 4-Season Garden Course. I can’t wait to meet you.
If you need any more convincing, here are a few final thoughts from Melissa (I picture her writing this to me while enjoying her brand new backyard garden space).
If you’re ready to get your dream garden and are looking for a step-by-step framework to follow, this course may be a great fit for you.

Flagler County Extension describes Florida-Friendly Landscaping.
You may have heard the term Florida-Friendly Landscaping ™ before, but what does it actually mean? The term refers to a landscape that improves the quality of life of its residents while providing economic and ecological sustainability to the surrounding community.
The Florida-Friendly Landscaping ™ (FFL) program was developed more than 20 years ago by the Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences (IFAS) at the University of Florida. This program is designed to help homeowners, communities, governments and businesses create and maintain beautiful landscapes that protect natural resources and conserve water by using research-based, sustainable landscape practices. Applying basic Florida-Friendly Landscaping ™ practices also provides important benefits such as long-term cost savings and reduced maintenance.
Why is Florida-Friendly Landscaping ™ important?
Implementing Florida Friendly Landscaping ™ practices is important for a variety of reasons, all of which relate to the need to balance our precious natural resources with the increasing demands of a growing population. It is no mistake that Florida is an attractive place to live, and as a result, new subdivisions seem to emerge overnight. Flagler County’s current population of more than 120,000 has grown by over 20% since 2010 and is expected to continue to grow in the coming decades.
There are nine Florida Friendly Landscaping ™ Principles that are a direct response to initiatives developed by UF / IFAS Extension to address statewide issues related to the sustainability and conservation of resources in growing Florida communities. Initiatives with which the FFL program is most concerned are “Improving and protecting the quality, quantity and supply of water” and “Improving and protecting Florida’s natural resources and environmental quality”.
The return to a natural Florida landscape
The beauty of our region’s natural environment is a major attraction for visitors, newcomers, and long-term residents. Central Florida alone offers a variety of forests, estuaries, and coastal habitats that inspire artists, outdoor sports enthusiasts, and nature lovers from all walks of life. There is a growing trend to recreate a touch of Florida’s nature in your own garden in order to escape the stress of everyday life. The FFL program is intended to provide homeowners and companies with the education and resources to successfully implement a paradigm shift from the typical, barren “lawn landscape” to a rich, diverse “natural landscape”.
The increasing benefits of a low-maintenance landscape
One of the greatest challenges in our modern life is having enough time to relax and take advantage of our hard-earned investments, including our home gardens. Whether we’re working full-time, raising a family, or enjoying our retirement, it makes sense to renovate our landscapes to make them more welcoming and stress-free. By growing more shade with native trees and slowly replacing our lawns with more disease-resistant native plants, we’re ultimately creating a slice of this “natural landscape” in Florida that can provide shade, serenity, and beauty for a place you can truly call “home.” . “
To learn more about creating your own Florida-friendly garden, please contact horticultural agent Mimi Vreeland at firstname.lastname@example.org


Build the Waterfalls
Build the waterfalls beginning with the top waterfall. Follow instructions for your specific filter, but here are a couple of guidelines for building natural-looking waterfalls:
-Use larger stones to frame the sides of the waterfall; this is an excellent place to put your favorite stones; where they’ll be highlighted by the waterfall.
-Don’t stack smaller flat rocks together to create the waterfall; use large, irregular stones to build the waterfall.
-Tilt the stones forward so the water moves off the rock, not behind it.
-Experiment with the types of waterfalls that you have: play with sheeting effects, splashing effects, and the width and depth of the waterfall. Different waterfalls have different sounds.

Patio ideas that are nicely planned and created needs to be uncomplicated, easy care spaces. Elevated flower beds and landscapes bordering a patio full of hearty plants can create points of interest. Purchase a drip irrigation system that is run by an automatic timer without concern yourself with watering.
There is nothing more relaxing than being able to sit on your patio on a warm summer evening and watch the sunset over the city. Patios can be used to set up a romantic dinner by candlelight without having to go through the bother of making a reservation at a restaurant and then having to deal with the interruptions of waiters and the conversations of other couples intruding on your moment. So it is important that you love your patio. The best patio ideas are simple and effective. You can create your perfect patio using the things you have lying around at home and having a paver put in the perfect flooring for your patio.

Have you ever wondered how realistic and breathtaking natural landscapes can be created in Cities: Skylines 2? In his new series of videos, YouTuber Sully set out to prove that even with all the problems in the current version of the game and without a wide range of modding tools, truly impressive projects can be implemented in the game.
Recently, the YouTuber published a second video about the detailing in Cities: Skylines 2, focusing on nature. This time the inspiration was the picturesque Snowdonia National Park in Wales with its breathtaking mountain landscapes, rushing waterfalls and mysterious lakes.
Using mods such as Extra Landscaping Tools, Water Features and Anarchy, the player carefully designed and implemented a stunning natural terrain – with a crystal clear mountain lake, a winding river with small stones at the bottom, an impressive waterfall and a picturesque forest village on its banks. All this is harmoniously integrated into the hilly mountain landscape of the map and looks great.
As the author explains, the main goal of these videos is to demonstrate that even at an early stage in Cities: Skylines 2, it is already possible to create detailed natural landscapes, breathtaking locations and interesting architectural designs, effectively using the basic tools available and a little creativity.
In a future longer video, viewers will be able to see in detail the entire process of creating this impressive area – from the first touches on empty land to the last small details. The author will show how he textured rocks, modeled a river bed and created realistic soil.

RON ARAD: I decided I don't want to do any more rocking chairs. I did too many rocking chairs. I promised myself never to do a rocking chair ever again and I started doodling and drawing. And, with the Southern Hemisphere whoops, not only I did a rocking chair that rocks back and forth, it also rocks sideways. But the beauty of it is that you design the landscape. The idea is to, do a sphere and to carve out of it a very comfortable landscape that's not too prescriptive, but amazingly comfortable. And, weight it, with lead at the tangent point. And, and let it, stand there and, and rock, and sway, and swing, and rotate, and turn.

Huba huba it’s cold. It’s also President’s Day and we were hoping for a nice walk around Memory Park today to see the beautiful American flags. That’s likely not going to happen as we brave this winter storm front, but spring is just around the corner and there will be lots of sunny days to come. To give you something to look forward to, and to add to the beauty of that walk, the Rotary Club of Lake Conroe has a new project in the works - and it can include you.
When the park was just a dream and an initial blueprint, Landscaper Peter Wakefield presented Rotary with a substantially smaller and simpler project. Lots of beautiful plants and gardens, lovely walkways, a pond slightly enlarged and cleaned and of course, the memorials. All wonderful, but from day one there was a concern about the water circulation in the pond, which was to be stocked with beautiful koi fish and plant life and flora. What’s the solution, Peter was asked. Simple but expensive, said Peter - a waterfall.


Project Description: The Road Reconstruction project on Prospect Avenue exemplifies the continued partnership between Onondaga County and the City of Syracuse. This project is another example of Onondaga County partnering with the City of Syracuse Department of Public Works through their road reconstruction program for the installation of green infrastructure. This project, within the CSO 020 area, is intended to reduce pollution to Onondaga Creek and Onondaga Lake and is the twelfth road reconstruction project completed through this partnership under the Save the Rain program.
The project uses one underground infiltration trench on Prospect Avenue between East Laurel Street and Butternut Street, adjacent to St. Joseph’s Hospital, to manage the runoff from the avenue. Prospect Avenue is very steep, and as a result, the underground infiltration trench has five “steps” to manage the change in grade while also maximizing the stormwater capture. High flows from large rain events (more than one inch of rain over the course of a two hour period) will flow into the existing combined sewer system for safety. The streetscape will not look different after the work is complete, as the trenches are completely underground with no visible features at the surface.
This project manages 15,840 square feet of impervious drainage area, for a total capture of approximately 280,000 gallons of stormwater runoff annually, in the medium priority area of CSO 020. The project was completed in 2017.

Specifically, Challenge entrants were asked to utilize the City of Chattanooga’s storm water management practices as a guide for their designs.
“We are excited to see the site proposals developed over the past several weeks,” said Mayor Andy Berke. “This competition is an innovative way to promote and support sustainable practices. Through this partnership, as well as the involvement of numerous talented professionals, we will have solutions to help make neighborhoods stronger throughout Chattanooga.”

A lot of people have taken an interest in landscaping, in recent times. Like any other pastime, landscaping is a hobby that is enjoyed more when you have received the proper information or education on how to do it. This article has lots of great information for people interested in landscaping.
To save money, you can buy items such as mulch or containers from a home-improvement warehouse. The quality of these items will not make much of a difference. However, you should go to a nursery to buy your plants and your other products such as pesticides instead of settling for low-quality products.
Before you go to a gardening store to get your materials together, measure out your work area and make sure the measurements are exact. This makes it much easier to determine how much of each item you actually need. You’ll save the time and effort you would have had to expend running back and forth to the store numerous times for additional purchases and returns.
Try to make sure that the height of your lawn is always between 2 and a half to 3 inches. Having your grass at this height will help protect it from sun and heat damage. Also, at this height, moisture will not evaporate as much as it would if it were taller.
If you are trying to get a lot of color in your yard or garden area, but do not have a large budget, consider wildflowers. The seeds for wildflowers are easy to find in your local landscaping center. These can be thrown in large areas where you are unlikely to place traditional landscaping plants. The end result will provide you with lots of different colored flowers. You can even pick the flowers to make a bouquet instead of paying for flowers at a grocery store.
If you live in a part of the country that is at risk for wildfires, choose landscaping projects accordingly. For example, trees should be planted at least 100 feet apart. Additionally, large trees should not be planted less than 100 feet from your house or other building structure (garden, shed, workshop, etc.).
To get the most bang for your buck when purchasing plants for landscaping, look for pretty perennials. These varieties come back year after year, making them ideal for a low-maintenance landscape design. Irises, day lilies, tulips, pink dianthus, phlox and wild buckwheat are all great examples of flowering perennials that you can enjoy for multiple seasons.
Plan before you start shopping. It’s important to know what you’re getting yourself into. Before you go shopping for the things you need, make a plan for yourself. Determine exactly what you’re doing, what the costs will be, and the skill level involved. It would be unwise to just start landscaping without some sort of plan. You could easily end up wasting a great deal of time, and money.
As this article mentioned earlier, a lot of interest surrounding landscaping has emanated in recent years. Indeed, landscaping has received a lot of buzz, but many people are daunted by what’s perceived to be a difficult and challenging hobby. Surprisingly, it’s much easier to landscape with the right resources and information. Apply this article’s advice and begin landscaping more easily, starting today.

Leaf color is mainly more one of the hues of blue than either blue-gray or blue-green.
Junipers are native to much of the U.S. and come in many sizes and shapes. Juniperus horizontalis is the low growing and spreading juniper, used mainly as an evergreen groundcover. There are many varieties available, one or more to suit every purpose and location. Colors and heights vary from the common dark green evergreen to blue green, blue and even lime or chartruese. Their hallmark is their fine texture, many of the newer varieties have a pleasant soft touch. Water use can vary as well, but typically, once established many will thrive on once a month deep watering.
