Build to Begin: April 2021
Thanks to everyone who participated in the discussions!
After the first public meeting, we gathered the feedback and assessed that the layout should be proportioned roughly 2/3 street and 1/3 transition. The wish list was hefty, so we weighted each feature with the amount of people who asked- and came up with around 10 must have features/feature combinations and 5 site specific spacing and flow ideas to fit into a 8,500 sf park.
Responding to feedback from the second meeting, we made some changes to widen the flow/snake area and define the flat ground area. It seems there are always more wanted features than there is space, but we believe the design takes into account the diversity of users and also allows for flow and creative interpretation.


If you are thinking about installing a gazebo in your garden, you’ll find that you most commonly have the choice between wood and metal. There are advantages to both styles which we’ve outlined here. Here’s everything you need to know.
About Wooden Gazebos
Wooden gazebos are made from treated pine or from hardwoods that are suitable for use outdoors. Generally you will find that the gazebo structure itself is made from wood while the roof is made from another material such as thatch, tiles, polycarbonate or Colorbond. Your roofing choice is really up to you and what you choose can help to determine the entire look of your wooden gazebo. Wooden gazebos are incredibly durable and will last the test of time if they are properly cared for. However, you’ll find that nothing will beat the beauty and natural feel of timber.
Style wise, wooden gazebos can be rustic, simple, or really ornate with elaborately carved designs. You can stain or oil the gazebo to bring out the true natural beauty of the timber or you can paint it in any colour that you like (it is a good idea to try and complement the house or garden however). You just have to remember that to keep the timber in good condition, it will require regular maintenance in the form of resealing or repainting it as necessary. How often you need to refinish the timber will depend on if you’ve chosen an oil, stain or paint. Wooden gazebos are gorgeous and warm-feeling but they can be expensive, depending on the species of timber that you choose.
About Metal Gazebos
Metal gazebos are mainly constructed from one of three types of metal – aluminium, steel, or wrought iron. Aluminium gazebos are strong yet lightweight; steel gazebos are permanent, durable and stand the test of the time; and wrought iron gazebos are strong yet beautiful. Which one you choose will depend on your budget, as well as the design. Simple, smaller gazebos are cheaper to construct than more elaborate or larger ones. Aluminium is the cheapest option, while wrought iron is at the more expensive end of the scale.
Metal gazebos can be as simple as supporting pillars and a roof or they can incorporate elaborate decorative elements such as low balustrades, finials, fretwork and the like. You will find that the gazebo can be all steel or you can incorporate other materials such as wood to add something more to it. The beauty of metal gazebos is that you never have to worry about them warping, rotting, or being attacked by termites. As well, very little maintenance is required to keep them looking their best.

Shady chalk plant combination
Open border plan
Mid to late spring is the main season of interest with this border. The towering spires of the bear's breeches, enormous soft pink flowers of the Paeony and the pure white, scented flowers of the mock orange all burst into life.
Planting tips: To minimise the risk of powdery mildew taking hold on the Acanthus, ensure that the plant is watered well during hot, dry spells. You shpoul also lift and divide large clumps in spring. The Paeonia will need deadheading after flowering, and in early spring apply a balanced slow-release fertiliser around the base of the plant as well as a mulch of well-rotted compost or manure. Prune the Philadelphus in late summer immediately after flowering, removing one in four of the older stems to ground level.
You will need a semi shaded, chalky bed 3m long by 2m wide.

Every workday I pass these poor trees. I want to weep. Plantwoman, you taught me well.
The lake? Well, we are in a drought here. But also, this is an irrigation lake and it is usually dry in the winter. So when the winds blow, all the silt in the bottom of the lake blows into those high dollar homes you can barely see on the opposite shore. Too much development. I want to weep.

I love the Spring. The city becomes full of beautiful flowers and blossoming trees and all this happens without it being too warm or hot. But, the beauty of Spring is still a little ways off as it is still only February. So, in lieu of blossoming beauty around us, I have put together a few pretty (and pink) images from the Ottawa Arboretum that I captured during one of my many visits there last Spring.
I absolutely love the Arboretum and love shooting clients there even more! I am really looking forward to this Spring and being able to walk through it and see this side of it again.


A major facelift is coming to a park
in La Crosse.
This is the proposed new look to Poage Park.
The plan was developed with help from residents in
the neighborhood and the city parks department.
It includes a picnic area on one half.
and an open green area on the other side.
It's another step as the neighborhood moves away from
And it'll give the families what they want for a place
One of the things they stressed that they'd really
like is a splash park for the kids, a really nice
play area for the kids, and some open grassy area
that the family and kids can use for multiple uses.
Construction is likely to start this summer.
and the park will be ready later this fall.

102 SBEP Bay Guardian Volunteers Enhance Bioswale at Celery Fields
A group of 102 SBEP Bay Guardian volunteers enhanced a bioswale with 900 native plants at the new bird center at Celery Fields on Saturday morning. Project partners included SBEP, Around the Bend Nature Tours, Sarasota Audubon, Florida Native Plant Society, Brookside Middle School, and the Salvation Army. A bioswale is a shallow vegetated landscape area with gently sloped sides designed to hold rainwater.
SBEP supported the project with a Bay Partners Grant. Awarded in 2015, the grant supports the efforts by Sarasota Audubon and the Florida House Institute to educate residents about stormwater pollution, native plants, water conservation, and the Phillippi Creek watershed. Interpretative signs will be installed to support public education. SBEP Bay Partner Grants support local projects focused on Bay Education, Bay Restoration and Bay-Friendly Landscaping.
The Bay Guardians will visit Robinson Preserve Saturday, December 12 to complete a morning Oyster bagging project. This is a joint effort with the Tampa Bay Estuary Program (TBEP). Project partners include SBEP, TBEP, Around the Bend Nature Tours, and the Manatee County Parks and Natural Resources Department.
Coming in the first quarter of 2016 will be three Air Potato Roundup events to get rid of more of the invasive species at North Water Tower Park on January 16, Red Bug Slough on February 27, and Philippi Estate Park on March 12. Native plants are resilient to local environmental conditions and attract wildlife. Invasive species like the air potato compete with native plants, which can disrupt the balance of the bay’s ecosystem.
The award-winning Bay Guardians Program is managed by SBEP in partnership with Around the Bend Nature Tours. The group has donated many thousands of hours supporting restoration projects along the bay and in area parks and preserves. The Bay Guardians complete at least six projects in Sarasota and Manatee County each year. Each outing includes environmental education and a picnic lunch following the morning project.
Please contact Darcy Young at email@example.com if you are interested in becoming a Bay Guardian.

On October 22, Cherry Hills Village city officials, including Mayor Russell Stewart and Parks and Recreation Coordinator Emily Black, along with the project management team from HPM Contracting, showed those around who were hearty enough to walk through the slightly muddy project at 8:00 a.m. on a cool morning.
HPM is dredging and reshaping ponds, building a new fishing bridge, and adding new wetlands with a boardwalk through it, as well as new trees. Additional open space will also be part of the 13.8 total acres of newly redesigned park area.
The Villager spoke to Marie Frederickson, a 36-year resident of the area near the new park. Mrs. Frederickson told us she has been watching the construction and is very excited about the plans. She told us she rode horses there years ago.
The total project cost for John Meade Park and the nearby companion project Alan Hutto Memorial Commons is $3,456,700. To help pay for it, grants were applied for and received in the amounts of $500,000 from Arapahoe Count Open Spaces and $200,000 from Mile High Flood District (formerly Urban Drainage Flood Control District). The Cherry Hills Land Preserve donated $10,000 to the effort, and $573,300 was authorized to be used from CHV’s Parks and Recreation Fund for the project. The remaining $2,173,400 was borrowed in the form of certificates of participation.
John Meade Park and Alan Hutto Memorial Gardens are expected to be finished in September 2020.

A good patio designer will integrate your uses into a pleasing design. One that will accentuate certain features of your home while expanding your personality to the outside. The most difficult part of a patio design idea is the marriage between functionality and aesthetics. Brick and concrete patio pavers give you a lot of design flexibility. Radial designs typically will soften corners and create interesting curves. Square and rectangle patio designs, whether parallel with the house or on a 45 degree angle, are used to accentuate dimensional features of a home. Using different colors and/or styles of pavers in different areas will help define space on your patio. For example, a circle pattern may define a fire pit area.
Due to the increasing popularity of brick paving stone or "pavers", homeowners are no longer satisfied with the standard rectangle concrete slab. Pavers allow patio designers to be much more creative in implementing you patio ideas. They can utilize radial and circular designs, different patterns, borders and colors. Also, the introduction of patio block has changed the way patios are designed and used. Each manufacturer has a different name for them, but in a "nut shell" they are stackable blocks that can be used to create seating walls, columns, grill stations, outdoor bars and kitchens. If you can imagine it, you can build it with these blocks.

Work to create a new area for wildlife enthusiasts will start soon along the canal in Cwmbran.
The plans include a new pond dipping platform and seating alongside the canal by Pontnewydd Park, as well as improved footpaths and a new footbridge to the park.
A new landscaped entranceway into the park will also be built to open the canal up to visitors.
Councillor Joanne Gauden, Executive Member for Economy and Skills, said: “These enhancements will really make a difference to the area, and I hope local residents and visitors will enjoy them.
“None of these enhancements would be possible without funding, which is why I would like to thank the Welsh Government for their continued support.”
The project forms part of the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal Adventure Triangle Programme. It aims to develop outdoor recreation, tourism and leisure activity along the canal in Torfaen and Caerphilly and connecting upland areas of Mynydd Maen.
Torfaen County Borough Council, in partnership with Caerphilly County Borough Council and the Canal and River Trust, were successful in securing funding from the European Regional Development Fund and the Welsh Government as part of Visit Wales’ Tourism Attractor Destination programme as well as Targeted Match Funding.
The Tourism Attractor Destination Programme contains 13 regionally prioritised projects, which aims to create must visit destinations to drive interest in Wales as a holiday destination for new and repeat visitors.

Two exceptional individuals from the Council’s Landscape, Design, and Conservation Team have been shortlisted for a prestigious national award, recognising their significant contributions in the realm of flood prevention and the mitigation of climate change impacts.
Dr. Saira Ali, Team Leader of the Landscape, Design, and Conservation division, and Andrew Mindham, a Gateway Officer and Landscape Architect, have both been nominated for the esteemed SUSDRAIN SuDS Champion Awards. These annual awards aim to acknowledge the excellence demonstrated by sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) and the individuals who inspire, inform, and influence good practices in this field.
SUSDRAIN serves as a professional community, providing valuable resources to those involved in implementing SuDS. These systems play a vital role in managing flood risks and maintaining water quality while simultaneously enhancing biodiversity, amenity, and a host of other benefits that contribute to the creation of vibrant and enjoyable living, working, and recreational spaces.
Especially crucial in urban areas lacking natural drainage pathways, SuDS can be developed through various means, such as installing ditches to divert water flow, constructing ponds, wetlands, or permeable paving.
Dr. Saira Ali, who previously won the “Raising Star” category at the 2021 SUSDRAIN SuDS Champion Awards, has now been shortlisted in the “Established Professional” category for this year’s ceremony. Her nomination has been put forward by Paul Shaffer, Director of Innovation and Delivery at the Chartered Institution of Water and Environmental Management. Dr. Ali’s selection reflects her tireless efforts in advocating for SuDS and going above and beyond to deliver systems that foster greener, healthier, and more prosperous communities.
Andrew Mindham, nominated in the “Rising Star” category, was endorsed by Louise Page, Marketing Manager at GreenBlue Urban. Andrew has played an integral role in a range of SuDS schemes with Bradford Council over nearly four years, focusing on implementing innovative on-the-ground solutions that offer multiple benefits through blue and green infrastructure.
Working collaboratively in the Landscape, Design, and Conservation Team, Dr. Ali and Andrew have successfully introduced SuDS innovations into several projects. Notable examples include the Top of Town Public Realm Improvement Scheme, which incorporates nature-based solutions such as street trees and rain gardens to address SuDS requirements. Similarly, the North Street Keighley SuDS Scheme aids drainage while promoting biodiversity. The ongoing Great Horton Junction improvement scheme also embraces these principles. Additionally, the team is actively involved in the LIFE Critical project at Horton Park, part of the EU Life Programme aimed at supporting environmental, nature conservation, and climate action initiatives.
The Landscape, Design, and Conservation Team frequently seeks additional funding and resources to further its ambitions of innovating and implementing blue and green infrastructure projects to mitigate the impacts of climate change.
Cllr Alex Ross-Shaw, Portfolio Holder for Regeneration, Transport, and Planning, expressed his delight at the nominations, stating, “I am delighted that two of our officers have been nominated for these national awards. Saira and Andrew are truly passionate about their work and its potential for enhancing Bradford. This nomination showcases the exceptional and innovative efforts being undertaken to make our district more sustainable.”
The winners of the SUSDRAIN SuDS Champion Awards will be determined through a public vote, with the results set to be announced at a ceremony on July 13th. To support Saira and Andrew’s nominations, the public can cast their votes until June 30th by visiting the following link: https://www.susdrain.org/SuDSAwards/SuDSChampionAwards2023Folder/2023ChampionNominations.


The Detroit RiverFront Conservancy today announced that four design firms have been selected to move forward in a design competition for West Riverfront Park, a 22-acre parcel bounded by the Detroit River, 8th Street, W. Fort Street, and Rosa Parks Blvd (12th Street).
The four firms selected include:
Gustafson Guthrie Nichol (GGN) in collaboration with Arup and Guy Nordenson and Associates. Local partners include Rossetti (Detroit), Conservation Design Forum (Grand Rapids), Building Community Value (Detroit), Salonnière (Detroit), and Mannik Smith Group (Detroit).
Hood Design Studio in collaboration with Diller Scofidio + Renfro, West 8, Richter, Arup, Fluidity, Ken Greenberg, Lotus Water and Altus.
James Corner Field Operations in collaboration with nArchitects, Sherwood Design Engineers, Milton Fearn, HR&A Advisors, Ann Zoller, ETM Associates and CMS Cost Management Services. Local partners include Austell Associates (Bloomfield Hills), Detroit Collaborative Design Center (Detroit), Giffels Webster (Detroit) and AKT Peerless (Farmington).
Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates in collaboration with Utile and Mobility in Chain (MIC). Local partners include Limnotech (Ann Arbor), PEA (Detroit) and NTH Consultants (Northville).
“We’re looking to do something unique and compelling for the City of Detroit,” says Matt Cullen, board chairman of the Detroit Riverfront Conservancy. “West Riverfront Park will be a place that Detroiters and visitors alike will be drawn to, and that will be celebrated as one of the most special public spaces in the world.”
A $345,000 grant from the Ralph C. Wilson, Jr. Foundation was used by the Detroit Riverfront Conservancy to fund the design competition, which launched in July with Request for Qualifications invitations to more than 80 global firms. Those efforts resulted in more than 20 international, national, and local design firms submitting proposals for review.
Eight firms were then selected to present their qualifications to a jury comprising Detroit Riverfront Conservancy leadership, Detroit Planning Director Maurice Cox, and several other local and national architecture and design experts on August 8-9. The jury then selected four teams to proceed.
Each of the final four firms will receive a $30,000 stipend to develop and complete design concepts. The plans will then be completed over a 12-week period, with a public exhibition of the plans and visuals in January.
“We are living through a renaissance of public space, and the firms that are moving forward in the competition have designed some of the most unique and beautiful parks in the world,” says Mark Wallace, president and CEO of the Detroit Riverfront Conservancy. “We are looking forward to seeing their vision for West Riverfront Park and to see them engage with the public on the future of this important place.”
In addition to the public being invited to attend the presentation of the eight semi-finalists, each of the four firms will reach out within the community for input on their design ideas. Feedback from the community will also be heavily considered when the jury makes its decision on which of the four firms move forward in the competition.
For nearly 100 years, the site was privately owned and closed to the public until the Detroit Riverfront Conservancy purchased the property and opened the park in 2014. Since then, the park has become a popular destination for people to enjoy the outdoors as well as hosting several concerts and events, including Touch-A-Truck, Mo Pop Festival, and Charivari Electronic Music Festival.
In addition to the support received from the Ralph C. Wilson, Jr. Foundation for the design competition, riverfront planning is made possible by the Michigan Department of Transportation, the Fred A. and Barbara M. Erb Family Foundation, Fifth Third Bank, FORD/UAW, the City of Detroit, Hudson Webber Foundation, the Knight Foundation, the Kresge Foundation, and the Detroit Metro Convention and Visitors Bureau.

Fancy a dip in clean, clear water without the crinkling effects of chlorine from a traditional swimming pool, salt from the sea or the chemicals that can find their way into our lakes and rivers? The answer, for an increasing number of homeowners, is to create their own – chemical-free – swimming pond, with crystal-clear water surrounded by plants and buzzing with wildlife.
Wild swimming in nature’s beauty is all the rage – plunging in, whatever the weather. It is said to help reduce inflammation, improve circulation and boost the immune system. If nothing else, it induces a warm glow as you emerge from the often chilly waters and envelop yourself in a robe.
Along with rewilding your estate, planting hundreds of trees and establishing wildflower meadows, creating your own pond for (almost) wild swimming is a mark of the modern, forward-thinking landowner: a beautiful, naturalistic-looking stretch of water filtered clean by the quiet workings of a pump and oxygenating plants such as spiked water-milfoil, hornwort and water mint. It provides a gentle encounter with the local wildlife as you do your daily lengths. “We love swimming in our pond, as well as having a natural feature in our garden with a habitat that continually evolves with the seasons,” says Patrick Grant, whose pond in Hampshire was installed by Gartenart. “It is just as enjoyable as a swimming pool, but far more pleasant to look at throughout the year.”

Lecture & Walking Tour on Saturday, September 17th, 2016
Published : Thursday, September 1, 2016 | 5:31 PM
Zooming down South Orange Grove, most Pasadenans are unaware that the street is a catalogue of the City’s long garden history. This lecture and walking tour will illustrate how 60 years of zoning regulations have perpetuated the Victorian tastes and Arts & Crafts principles that characterize the landscaped open space up and down the boulevard. And just beyond the deep front yards, tour stops will explore postwar modernism’s use of gardens as outdoor rooms for social functions.
From its early days as a terrace of orange groves above the sleepy Arroyo Seco to the bucolic Busch Gardens of the 1910s still visible beneath the designs of mid-century landscape architects, the topography along South Orange Grove Boulevard boasts lush and intact examples of its past eras. Will the shift from exotic and tropical plantings to drought-tolerant natives impact these neighborhood features?
Join Pasadena Heritage for the pre-tour lecture to learn more. A self-paced walking tour follows with docent-guided stops at multiple locations along South Orange Grove between Colorado and California Boulevards.
South Orange Grove Boulevard:
From Millionaires’ Mansions to Contemporary Condos
Lecture & Walking Tour
Saturday, September 17th
The lecture will be held at Maranatha High School
Limited free parking available
Lecture – 10 a.m.

Baobab Safari Resort is the right choice if you want to stay in a place that has a beautiful view. This resort offers an experience that you can’t get anywhere else. Just imagine, the wildlife is roaming around the resort which makes the atmosphere look more different. This is the strength of the Baobab Resort, African wildlife is presented before your eyes. Not only that, this resort was made to look natural without compromising on the beauty of the design. Material selection also goes through a strict process so that only materials that match the concept are used. One of the components in this resort is the beauty of the pavers that blends with nature thanks to the Bali Grey Basalt stone.
Choosing the right type of natural stone for paving the road is not an easy thing to do. We have to consider several aspects in order to get the right type of stone. Otherwise, the reinstallation process will be time-consuming and costly. This is a nightmare for architects, so they only choose materials that fit the concept while considering their quality. Baobab Safari Resort certainly knows that Bali Grey Basalt is a type of natural stone that has everything one wants. Besides being able to make the appearance of a building project look more amazing, this natural stone also has characteristics that make it durable.
Durability is the most important aspect that must be taken into consideration. Moreover, the pavers will be passed by many people for a long period of time. Choosing a natural stone that is easily weathered will only make us disappointed. Moreover, pavers are also installed in outdoor areas so they are prone to changes in weather and air temperature. These two things are aspects that can make natural stone porous until it breaks at the end. Baobab Safari Resort knows very well that Bali Grey Basalt will not be porous or break even when exposed to hot and cold weather. Even when compared to other natural stones, Bali Grey Basalt has the best level of strength.
Apart from the benefits of beauty and durability, Bali Grey Basalt can also blend into the natural surroundings. This stone is very suitable for buildings that carry an eco-friendly concept. Choosing a material that fits the concept will create harmony. As the result, the visitors can feel the authentic nuance of the concept that you’ve brought. Baobab Safari Resort did the right thing because Basalt has a gray color – which turns out to blend with the African wildlife concept. Imagine if this resort selected different natural stones, it’s hard to see the nature element on the pavers.
And last but not least, the Bali Grey Basalt stone has managed to elevate the value of the Baobab Safari Resort. The pavers look outstanding without degrading their quality. If any of you want to start a pavers project, Bali Grey Basalt would be the right choice as this natural stone will complement the design and ensure it last for the years to come.

In 2014, I spearheaded a partnership with the USA Pavilion at the Expo Milano. The objective of the Expo Milano was to draw attention to ecologically sustainable practices around the world. In this project, I worked with architects and organizers to create a massive vertical garden as well as various informational displays throughout the pavilion. After traveling to Washington D.C. to meet with State Department officials and to New York City to meet with the primary landscape architect, I was honored to attend the launch of the event in Milan in the Spring of 2015. The partnership of our team at Baker Creek, greenhouse growers in Italy, and the team on the ground in Milan allowed us to complete a unique and stunning project. The entire pavilion was quite literally covered with Baker Creek products.

Spring is Right Around the Corner – Why Not Consider Expanding Your Living Space With a Hardscape?
As we quickly head into 2022, it is hard to believe that spring is right around the corner. As anyone who lives in the Augusta area knows, when the warm air rushes in, it really rushes in. Although the cold is still here, now is an excellent time to start planning your hardscape area so that you can enjoy it come summertime. These are five hardscape projects to think about. Which one will help you enjoy your outdoor spaces more?
Most adults remember the times that they sat around a fire pit as a kid, singing and telling jokes. There is something about a fire that just brings everyone together. While the cold weather is here, why not design and build a fire pit area for all to enjoy. If COVID does make a comeback, you will have an amazing gathering space that is also social distance-equipped to keep everyone safe, while still getting together to create memories.
There is nothing worse than entertaining, and not being able to truly entertain. When the weather is nice, no one wants to hang out in the kitchen with you while you cook. That typically means that everyone is outdoors enjoying time together while you spend time preparing alone. An outdoor kitchen is a great way to bring it outside. Not only will it save you from cooking inside and paying more for air conditioning; it will ensure that you aren’t being left out feeling more like a short-order cook and waiter than a host!
Planters and Seating
Sometimes your hardscapes are about more than aesthetics. The best way to line your outdoor area is by sectioning it off using a hardscape design. Add seating space for your guests, while also beautifying it by putting in flower boxes that will showcase your patio and grow beautiful blossoming annuals. You can add a whole lot of entertainment seating, which is both functional and aesthetically awesome!
Sometimes hardscapes are not about entertaining or aesthetics. Sometimes they are purely functional. It is not uncommon in the sandy conditions we live in for people to deal with water erosion. If you have a part of your property that is sinking, or even worse, a foundation that is, then a retaining wall isn’t a hardscape you should consider; it is a must to protect your investment. At Rollins Landscaping, we aren’t just about hardscapes for entertainment purposes, we also work with things like drainage issues and grading!
Walkways or Paths
When it comes to navigating your backyard, a path or walkway is a must, especially after dark. By adding a path, you are making sure that your loved ones can safely navigate their way after dark. It is also an excellent way to tie together different areas of the backyard to entertain, or to section others off. Whether it is in addition to another hardscape or all on its own, the springtime is a great time for planning your new backyard playground!
As we roll into 2022, now is an excellent time to focus on making your new year brighter. For some homeowners, that means adding living space for entertaining, while also being able to enjoy the great outdoors year-round. At Rollins Landscaping, we have the expertise, design-savvy know-how, and commitment to excellence to make your outdoor spaces awesome. Contact us to discuss your spring hardscape project today
