Rocky Mountain National Park staff will begin work on a project that is designed to restore hydrologic, vegetative and habitat conditions at the confluence of Roaring River and Fall River. This area was dramatically altered during the Lawn Lake Flood.
On July 15, 1982, the man-made earthen dam at Lawn Lake failed. The subsequent flood sent raging water down the Roaring River, which scoured the river, inundated adjacent wetland habitat, and deposited a large debris fan at the confluence of the Roaring and Fall Rivers. Flood waters continued downstream in to Estes Park. Within Rocky Mountain National Park, a debris fan dammed Fall River at its confluence with the Roaring River, creating a 20 acre lake that flooded a willow carr, burying the willow beneath 10 feet of water and sediment. The lake, known as Fan Lake, became a popular fishing area.
In 1996, park officials determined that the debris fan was in danger of breaching, and there was growing concern that another flood could seriously impact Estes Park for a second time. At that time the National Park Service (NPS) prepared an environmental assessment, and the NPS Regional Director signed a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) for the intentional breaching of a natural moraine so that Fan Lake could be drained under controlled conditions. The breach occurred in 1996 and the lake slowly began to recede.
Fan Lake now exists only as a small pond. The area that was historically occupied by a willow carr is now re-exposed, although significant changes have occurred as a result of the flooding. Most notably, large areas of riparian willow have been lost and the former Fan Lake area consists of bare sediment, open water, or marsh wetlands. Willow have not reestablished themselves in these areas in the 10 years since Fan Lake started to recede.
During site visits by park staff and wetland restoration experts in 2005 and 2006, it was determined that the formation and persistence of Fan Lake had significantly altered topographic, soil and hydrologic conditions, making restoration to historic conditions impossible without restoring the site’s hydrologic regime. Even with reestablishment of the hydrologic regime, willow could not be restored without excluding elk. Therefore, this project proposes to restore the Roaring River to its former channel, conduct further work on Fall River, replant native willow and sedge species, and build an elk exclosure to protect the new plantings.

I’m currently working on creating a rose garden with box parterres for a client. A traditional design but very effective. I’ll post some pictures on this blog when it is a bit further advanced.
But roses are not to everyone’s taste so what about using Hydrangea arborescens ‘Annabelle’ instead? This photo recently caught my eye on the blog ‘Modern Counry Style‘.
It’s a great idea because Hydrangea ‘Annabelle’ are known for their flower heads drooping when in full bloom. Using the Buxus (box) hedging as a support keeps the flower heads upright. Also there is a wonderful colour contrast between the white and the green. A contemporary yet traditional design, combined with a practical solution. Perfect planting design inspiration.
If you are wondering, the trees in the foreground of the picture are Tilia europaea ‘Pallida’ and the hedging in the background is either Fagus sylvatica (beech) or Carpinus betulus (hornbeam). You may also notice the box balls on the corner of each parterre. A nice touch as these mimick the shape of the hydrangea flowers and add a continuity to the overall planting design.


Pandora’s Box Weeping Mulberry – Funky Tree and That Fruit Too!
Morus alba ‘Pendula’, This unusual tree is a sure show-stopper in the landscape! Pandora’s Box twisted, gnarled trunk is crowned with a cascade of branches that weep to the ground. Produces an abundance of small black fruit in early summer. Self Fertile Zones 5-10.


The reservoir site lies within a shallow valley and includes approximately 160 ha of open grassland as well as woodland with hedgerows and ditches. It is home to a variety of wildlife associated with grassland and woodland. Three small unnamed water courses cross the site from north to south. Historically the middle stream was dammed to create a small woodland pond.
Follow the links to the left to find out more about the wildlife currently found on the site. You can also browse through a selection of photos of birds that will potentially be found on the site after the reservoir has been completed.
Portsmouth Water recognises the importance of taking a responsible approach to concerns regarding habitat loss at the reservoir site. Baseline ecological survey work commenced in 2005 (four years in advance of the proposed planning application for the reservoir), to ensure that all of the potential issues were identified. More detailed surveys for specific key features and species have been taking place at the site, on adjacent sites and at Langstone Harbour since 2006.
The information obtained from the survey work is being used to help determine an appropriate strategy to:
- avoid damage where possible and minimise the impacts of the scheme;
- create new woodland areas and enhance existing woodland habitats;
- create new wetland habitats;
- create new scrub and grassland habitats; and
- create and enhance wildlife corridors
The programme for the development of the reservoir includes two years for wildlife mitigation. The site clearance and construction work will then be undertaken over an extended period of five years. This will help to allow additional time for wildlife to adapt and move naturally with the changing environment.
After the reservoir is completed, the local ecology and wildlife of the site will be enhanced through the water resource itself and marginal wetland areas created to support a diverse range of flora and fauna - in particular aquatic species and birds. There are also opportunities for the development of new wildlife habitats within the existing woodlands around the site.

About South Macclesfield
The overall masterplan will create new infrastructure and help to transform the area with some 1,000 homes and community amenities including playing fields and a new 80,000sq.ft supermarket with a petrol station.
The development will be realised in two phases and will reduce the pressure for residential planning approvals within the nearby greenbelt. The first phase of the proposals will unlock the potential of the wider site and complement the town centre regeneration development.
The second phase includes a further 600 homes, plus sports and leisure facilities.


The University of Ballarat submitted an application for a planning scheme amendment to rezone part of the University land on the corner of Gear Avenue and University Drive from Public Use Zone 2 to Business 2 Zone. The rezoning is to facilitate the expansion of the existing Technology Park.
The eventual development of the subject site will include approximately 11 new lots which will enable the construction of additional buildings.
The Minister for Planning was the Planning Authority for this amendment under the provisions of section 20 subsection 4 of the Planning and Environment Act 1987. This effectively absolves the Minister from consulting with interested parties and having amendment documents available for the public.
At the 24 August 2011 Council Meeting, Council resolved to support the Minister for Planning becoming the Planning Authority but before that support is formally provided Council requires a consultation strategy and further information on built form, connectivity and traffic movement, vegetation and landscaping as well as sustainability initiatives.
Consultation took place in November 2011 with submissions sought from the local community and agencies. All submissions were reviewed prior to the request being submitted to the Minister for Planning.
The Minister for Planning gave final approval for the amendment in April 2012. The Ballarat Planning Scheme now contains the exhibited changes.
The proposed site development plan and aerial of the site can be viewed here:


What could be more pleasant than relaxing in the fresh air in a cozy gazebo, twined with ivy or wild grapes.
The gazebo will be a perfect shelter from heat and rain, it will allow you to be alone with nature or communicate with your loved ones.
The small and compact size of the gazebo will easily complement the land plot or garden plot, as well as place several gazebos of this type in recreation areas.
The gazebo has a double pitched roof, which is made of natural wood. Covering of the upper part of the gazebo will allow it to be resistant to any weather conditions, and it will last for many years.

No matter what your backyard looks like right now, you can take the steps for creating backyard bliss. The first thing you need to do is take a look at your backyard. It’s time to really evaluate it with an open eye. Maybe you’re ashamed of how bad you’ve let it get or perhaps you just haven’t had the time to think about it in a long time. Go look at your backyard now. It might be a good idea to take a pad and pen with you. Write down everything you think of that you’d like to see changed about your backyard. Then go down this list and consider what can be done and how much it will cost.
When creating a backyard environment, you should take some time to think about what type of wildlife you would like in your backyard, up close and personal. Being petrified of snakes and then creating an environment that snakes find irresistible would be a torturous mistake. This example emphasizes the importance of considering what type of animals you want frequenting your backyard. Specific plant life and bodies of water attract certain kinds of animals, bugs, and insects. Hence, in your backyard environment, you can plant greenery and create man-made bodies of water to entertain the type of wildlife you are comfortable with.
Due to unpredictable weather, it would also be wise to install a party tent. This is to avoid having your guests drenched in rain just in case there is a sudden downpour. But if your backyard has a patio or a covered deck, then the party tent will not be necessary. Backyard parties are usually done late in the afternoon. Due to this, you might want to add some lighting to your backyard. You want your guests or visitors to be comfortable while eating.

Euclid Advances Next Phase of Waterfront Improvements
“I hear lake water lapping… by the shore. I hear it in the deep heart’s core.” – William Butler Yeats, 20th Century Irish Poet
Euclid’s vision to provide unprecedented public waterfront access, habitat enhancements and upland stability is moving closer to reality.
Phase II of Euclid’s waterfront plan is in the engineering and design stages and positioned to break ground in 2017. Complementing the 250’ James Farrell Memorial Fishing Pier, rededicated in August 2013, the $11.5M Phase II project features a three-quarter mile multipurpose public trail along the shoreline heading east from Sims Park. Engineered offshore rock structures to improve wave action and sediment flow, revetments to protect the upland and public access points connecting the trail are also included. At the western terminus – just past the location of a future marina - a sand “paddle-craft beach” will be created to launch kayaks, canoes and other small craft into Lake Erie.
“The next phase of improvements will allow more people to enjoy our beautiful lakefront while encouraging new development and setting the stage for a future marina,” predicts Planning & Development Director Jonathan Holody.
This exciting vision to reclaim Euclid’s historic waterfront began in summer 2009 when the City of Euclid engaged SmithGroupJJR, an experienced waterfront engineering and design firm, to plan and implement waterfront enhancements. In April 2016 JJR’s Project Landscape Architect and Engineer met with shoreline property owners and the Waterfront Steering Committee to develop options, discuss easements and set a timeline for permitting and construction of Phase II.
A $4 million Cuyahoga County Casino Revenue Fund loan, of which $2 million is forgivable, provides a significant portion of the necessary funding. Additional project funding is provided by Federal, State, private foundation and local funds.
Please join us for a public meeting scheduled for Tuesday, May 24th at 7:00pm in Council Chambers at City Hall during a special meeting of the Planning & Zoning Commission. That evening a presentation of the final E.185th Street TCLI plan will also be presented by Northeast Shores Development Corporation.

Last summer, my husband and I were debating what to do with our backyard. When we moved in nearly three years ago we knew we didn’t want to tackle the backyard right away. I spent many nights, up late at night, scouring Pinterest (addicting I tell you!) for fresh ideas for our future space.
We decided that we would take out all the grass (big water save) and remove a lot of the existing concrete-it was just a giant sea of concrete that really had no purpose. We wanted to create a back yard that reflected the simple character that our Craftsman style home has. Having a love for the simple, Japanese aesthetic, we followed our hearts and decided on a traditional Japanese garden.Truthfully, we modified our plans over and over again. Did you know how many different kinds of gravel there are? Choosing one plant over another. Researching which bamboo is not going to be invasive…and so on and so on. My handy husband built the wooden pergola, installed the decking, and built the fire pit/seating area. I was in charge of the landscaping design and finishing touches. After 6 looooooong months of working on our project (literally every weekend) it’s completed! We are so pleased with how it has turned out. We just hosted a baby shower with 40 people over and it is a wonderful place to have a party! Now that it’s finally Summer, were hosting a movie night with friends!

Summer has arrived and the perfect outdoor space for you and your family can be just a few steps away. Creating a patio space that you will love is the perfect way to spend these early summer nights. When making choices about how to construct your backyard oasis, it is important to make considerations that can impact appearance, durability and functionality.
Before you start making design choices, try to envision what you want the end result to be. Take a chair out to the spot you are considering and try to start your design that way, with an idea of how you want the space to look when you are in it. Once you have your design, you will need to start to consider which materials would best bring that vision to a reality. Some of the material choices include concrete, bricks, pavers, stone, or tile.
Many homeowners choose poured concrete because it is known to be structurally sound, relatively inexpensive, and can dyed to appear as higher-end paving materials. Concrete is a great choice if you live in a warm climate.
Bricks offer the opportunity of a variety of color choices, but you should take into consideration that every brick must be set by hand, leveled and grouted. Keep in mind you’ll need to watch out for a slick surface after every rainfall if you extend your brick patio into shade.
Pavers, typically made from cement, cinder or stone, are often used for DIY projects for their low price and super simple installation. If you’re planning to lay your own patio, consider the need for a suitable substrate to keep the pavers from shifting.
Stone may be a highly desirable look, but it shows in the price tag. Flat stones can give off a calm effect, while uniform-cut slabs of granite and other stone can make your patio a little more formal. Natural stone is extremely durable, but consider opting for the nonslip type,, such as coral stone.
Tile has a wide variety of options, to include ceramic, glass, porcelain, terra cotta and natural stone. Tile can offer a cool surface under your feet in hot climates. Keep in mind that because tile is thin, it requires a concrete slab.

It may seem kind of silly to write about “Choosing a Crape Myrtle”. Don’t you just decide what color you like and buy that one? Well, maybe. But there are other factors to consider as well.
We now have a plethora of varieties to choose from, some with dark colored leaves, different colors of exfoliating bark, brilliant fall colors from red to orange, and a myriad of flower colors. While all of these are important, remember to first identify the mature height of Crape Myrtle that would be appropriate for the area that you are going to plant it in. You can then choose from the colors available in that height range. In fact, the unhealthy and unsightly practice of “Crape Murder” began long ago when a tall variety of Crape Myrtle was planted too close to a house, and would have to be reduced in size annually to not encroach upon the eaves. Unfortunately, yard men, seeing this practice, assumed it was acceptable and continued to “murder” Crape Myrtles in all cases, even when size was not an issue!
Crape Myrtle heights range from dwarf groundcover (under 1’), weeping miniature (2’-3’), dwarf (3’-6’), semi-dwarf (5’-12’), small tree (10’-20’), and tree (20’-30’). Follow this link to view varieties for Texas: Crape Myrtle Varieties
Mildew resistance is another factor to consider. Of course, good air circulation will improve your chances of avoiding powdery mildew, but there are some varieties that are less prone to developing the powdery fungus.
Of course, if you are planting a Crape Myrtle where deer have access to it, you will want to purchase a tree that already has a canopy “above the browse”, or about 5’ of clear trunk. If you decide to start smaller, you can put a ring of fencing 5’ tall around the tree until it has outgrown the “browse” height.
So, once you have decided the height range, and have identified a mildew resistant variety that has the color you are partial to, all you need to do is decide how large a tree to buy, and your decision making is done!

Established in 2008, modus studio works across a variety of scales, from furniture design to master planning. The studio is founded on the idea that “relevant and inspiring architecture can be sourced from simple, everyday experiences.” Recent projects include Green Forest Middle School, a reinterpretation of traditional school design for a small agricultural community; Eco Modern Flats, a renovation of four dated Fayetteville apartment buildings to improve aesthetics, performance, and sustainability; and a transformation of a warehouse on a brownfield site into a University of Arkansas sculpture studio.
David Seiter established Future Green Studio in 2008 as a landscape architecture firm that recognizes a “deep integration” between architecture and landscape with an emphasis on research, fabrication, and horticulture. Recent projects include Nowadays, a Queens performance venue with a laid-back, parklike atmosphere; Spontaneous Urban Plants: Weeds in NYC, a book promoting the aesthetic and ecological benefits of weeds; and Half Street, a block-long pedestrian plaza in Washington, D.C. that uses green infrastructure to manage stormwater runoff.
Jing Liu is a co-founding Principal at New York-based SO-IL and is a past Emerging Voices winner in 2013. She has been a faculty member at Columbia University Graduate School of Architecture, Planning, and Preservation since 2009 and advises the Master’s thesis at Parsons The New School of Design.

How to Put in Scalloped Edging
Scalloped edging is made from clay or concrete, so it looks similar to brick in texture, but each piece is much longer and the edges are scalloped with a flowing, wavy pattern. The scalloped top lends a soft, delicate appearance to this otherwise hard landscaping material. Use scalloped edging to frame flower beds or provide a barrier along walkways that discourages traffic from straying off the path. The edging pieces can shift if the ground isn't properly stabilized before installation.
Dig a trench along the area you wish to install edging, using a border spade to cut lines directly against the flower bed or paved surface and about 5 inches out. Pull back on the handle to remove the soil between the two cut lines to reveal a trench. Scalloped edging is usually 2 to 2 1/2 inches thick, so a 5-inch trench provides working room for installation. The trench depth should be about half the total height of the scalloped edging, measured from the base to the top of the scallops.
Pack the soil tight, using the blunt end of a digging bar or similar tool, creating a flat, level surface for the edging that won't shift over time. Lay a carpenter's level in the trench and add or remove soil as needed to achieve a level base. If you have clay soil with poor drainage, dig the trench about 4 inches deeper and add a 3-inch layer of compacted gravel and 1 inch of leveled, coarse sand to support the scalloped edging. This shouldn't be needed in most cases, but clay soil can't drain water, which leads to soil erosion that can shift the edging.
Place the first piece of scalloped edging in the trench at one end. Tap the end of the edging piece with a rubber mallet to push it tight against the end of the trench. Tap the top of the edging to embed it in the ground.
Set the second piece of scalloped edging in the trench directly beside the first piece. If the edging has tongue and groove ends, fit the tongue of one piece into the groove end of the neighboring piece. Tap the end of the second piece to lock it tight against the first piece and tap the top to embed it in the soil. Repeat this process until you reach the end of the trench.
Measure the distance from the end of the previous edging piece to the end of the trench if you can't fit a whole piece in the end of the trench. Mark this measurement on a whole piece of scalloped edging. Line up a brick chisel with the marks and tap the butt of the chisel with a hammer to score the edging. Score all the way around the edging, including both faces, the top and the bottom. Strike the end that you want to break off with a mallet to break the piece across the score line. It should break apart easily.
Lock the partial piece into the previous piece in the edging trench. Tap the ends and top of the edging to achieve a tight fit.
Back-fill the edging trench with the soil you removed when digging. If the edging is installed against a flower bed, back-fill the trench with mulch on the flower bed side of the edging. The soil or mulch back-fill should be even with the surrounding soil grade and about halfway up the edging height.
- Scalloped edging is available in numerous colors to match the other surfaces in your garden. If you have red brick paths, for example, use red scalloped edging to coordinate. If the edging is near a blue stone wall, choose bluish-gray scalloped edging to match the stone.

Keep Your Balance: the First Principle of Good WaterSpace Design
Use balance to pull together all the elements in your outdoor living space
Just as we can’t stand erect without balance, humans can’t stand an environment lacking a sense of balance. Like our physical balance, we don’t consciously notice balance in built spaces. Until it’s missing. Then it may be too late.
Balance in 3-Dimensions
Artists and photographers work on a flat, two-dimensional plane and have an array of design techniques to achieve balance. However, architects, builders, and landscape architects work in three dimensions.
The third dimension provides fewer options for achieving balance and opens troublesome opportunities for overlooking imbalance in some area of the design. A design can look fine on paper, but when built and viewed from some angle, something may feel unbalanced.
Our best choices in three dimensional designs come down to symmetrical or asymmetrical balance. In any design, both symmetrical or asymmetrical balance rest on visual weight. Balance is largely achieved by shape, with some help along the way by texture and color.
We call it visual weight because physically heavy features (say, stone) on one side can look balanced to the eye by placing lighter objects on the other side—lattice or windows, for example—that visually match the stone’s mass. You can do the same with masses of plants, trees, open spaces or water features.
Symmetrical Balance and Pleasing Style
Balanced designs are pleasing designs. Symmetry gives your space an orderly, structured, carefully planned feel. It starts with straight lines and neat circles, all lined up along a central axis. Each side of the center line is the mirror image of its counterpart.
Symmetrical, balanced designs appeal to our senses. They feel comfortable, predictable, safe, when done with restraint and on a human scale. You can see this in classic public buildings in Philadelphia. Think red brick and Independence Hall, or its smaller and less famous neighbor, Carpenter’s Hall.
On a grander scale, balanced, symmetrical design declares order, grandeur, and authority. Think marble and the larger, more imposing buildings in Washington, D.C., or just about any capital city. You can find the same large-scale symmetrical balance in India’s Taj Mahal, and many of the most picturesque museums, art galleries, university campuses, parks, and estates.
Asymmetrical Balance and Interesting Style
Asymmetrical balance brings out the artist, the interesting detail, a focal point, a place that holds your eye, that moves you forward. It can be fun, even daring.
It still supplies the balance we need to feel, but it brings out more opportunities for individual style to express itself.
You find asymmetrical balance in nature. Natural can feel more casual, calm and relaxing—like a quiet pond—or wilder, looser—like a rushing river or incoming tide.
You Can Blend Symmetrical and Asymmetrical
Skilled designers will blend symmetrical and asymmetrical balance, giving you the best of both. You can create a pool area that is modern, formal. There’s no mistaking its symmetrical balance. The straight lines and rectangular shapes with sleek, smooth surfaces feel cool, contemporary, sophisticated.
The adjoining garden can be made up of curved lines, irregular shapes. Its asymmetrical balance is in harmony with its neighboring pool area, and at the same time it provides a welcome contrast. You can feel the garden’s warmth in the designer’s rendering. You can imagine the visual interest and seasonal changes nature brings to the setting.
Sometimes it’s OK to Get a Little Off-Balance
There are times when a clever designer—and brave clients—may choose to get a bit off-balance in their design. Off-balance designs can become an interesting point of attention, or an unwelcome distraction. Even a little off-balance can look like a mistake (and probably is)—unless it’s done purposefully and with great skill.
I wouldn’t recommend no-balance designs. This creates visual chaos. Without clear purpose—and some visual relief—chaos is disturbing to the eye and unsettling to the body.
A Question of Style: Fashion Trend or Fad?
In my Introduction to our series on design principles, I touched on how the style you choose will point you toward the balance you’ll need.
We’re all influenced by trends in style. Inevitably, some disappoint and turn out to be fads. When styles in architecture are trends, they last for years, decades, centuries. When a new style is a fad—suddenly fashionable overnight—it can become unfashionable even faster.
The good news is that today’s big outdoor living trend is Modern—or Modern Contemporary. The trend started on the West Coast and has moved east. The Modern Contemporary style is a fresh take on 20th Century Modern. Modern style’s roots go way back, to Classic Greek architecture and the Greek Revival styles that arrived in America in the 19th Century.
When you think about style, take a wide view to start. You don’t want to limit your initial thinking to the one thing that appears fashionable now, or the one thing that’s been your default forever. Get to know various architectural and landscape styles, learn as much as you can about design elements and principles. Allow yourself the time to find the style that pleases you, that fits your needs and feels right for you.
Then get the best design help you can find. Whatever the style, good design is timeless.

This winter we will sow a strip of wild flowers along side the brook and under the willow trees. We have found inspiration for this in several places...
Above and Below: The famous wild flower meadow at Highgrove. The wild flower project there was started by the Prince in 1982, with the help of Miriam Rothschild. It was in response to the effect that modern farming techniques were having on native wild grasses and flowers due to spray drift and country road verges being mown before the flowers had flowered and hence seeded. It took several years for the 120 different varieties of flowers and grasses from 33 differing species to take a hold. The first couple of years were not so rewarding (so we shall know what to expect), but after they established themselves amongst the natural flora they found their stride.
Above: Painting by Jenny Causer.
Below: The great Southern Motorway idea of planting between the lanes of traffic south of Auckland with wild flowers. They have unfortunately not been replaced after 2 years, but they brought much pleasure while the project was running.

Published at Monday, 23 September 2019. Backyard. By Patricia Bélanger.
Building a backyard waterfall has always had the dreaded tasks of lifting heavy rocks, finding the right rocks, and making them fit the area you have to work with. Now, you can create your own rocks and boulders on the spot where they will remain and guaranteed to fit just right. Regardless of the space you have to place a backyard waterfall, it will fit! CaveRock Design has already proven their product to be the most cost effective method to create a backyard waterfall and without the costly estimates of having it done by a contractor. The best part of this backyard waterfall project, is a toss up between the fact you can do it yourself and how little it will cost you to construct it. With those two factors alone it’s a Winner!
For any pro-green individual who is interested in different ways they can contribute to their environment, a backyard sanctuary is certainly an environmentally friendly option. Many rural areas are being subjected to various types of industrial and residential developments, which result in the destruction of the natural wildlife habitats of many species big and small. These developments leave many types of wildlife without a functional home. Thus, individuals who decide to open their backyards as a wildlife home are offering a shelter to many wildlife that are finding it difficult to locate an ideal natural habitat of their own.
Also, sketch out your landscaping ideas before you begin buying anything. It is important to know what you plan on putting in your backyard before you actually spend any money. You need to know that all of your ideas are going to fit in the space that you have. This will also help you determine the approximate cost of your backyard landscaping and aid in planning your budget.

Mackay Waterfront vision unveiled
Those precincts are City Centre, Riverside, Enterprise, Queens Park and Beachside.
Mayor Greg Williamson said the master plan incorporated many community ideas from previous extensive community consultation.
“It details the public realm vision and concepts for the Mackay Waterfront over the next 20 years,’’ he said.
“The master plan is not a design document but provides that higher level vision to inform more detailed designs of individual projects within the five precincts.
“Importantly, it is a live, evolving document that will be responsive to any opportunities or constraints that emerge.”
Cr Williamson said the master plan would also be an important marketing tool as the Council sought to attract large investors and government funding.
“We also have some local investors excited by opportunities the Mackay Waterfront PDA presents,” he said.
Construction work on the PDA is already under way, with a redevelopment of Queens Park, funded by the State Government.
The draft masterplan can be viewed via connectingmackay.com.au and is open for comment until November 4, 2019.

Tom Wolstenholme logo redesign & website design
The logo redesign for this professional landscape and garden design business was to set the tone for rest of the project to follow.
Client, Tom had very clear ideas about how he wanted both his logo and his site to look so we worked closely with him from day one to ensure we delivered on his expectations.
Tom already had a logo but it needed a bit of a revamp. He already has a great reputation within the industry so we wanted to maintain some equity from the old logo but bring it up-to-date. We refined the shapes used previously making it more modern and fitting with the high standard of work Tom prides himself on delivering.
As a landscape designer, Tom’s work is gaining notoriety in the industry and he specialises in high end gardens that are built sustainably and to stand the test of time. We needed to design and build a website that could both show off his gorgeous gardens and also inform potential customers about the way in which Tom works as this is really important.
The website features lots of nice transitions to show off Tom’s work and to make the user experience a pleasurable one. We used a neutral colour palette in the most part, contrasted with the bold orange of the logo. The site is full of beautiful imagery and we wanted to give that space to shine as, ultimately, that is what visitors want to see.

Daune knew her clients well, having worked with them in coastal Rhode Island and the Back Bay of Boston. Her challenge was to bring the same sensibilities to their new home on the coast of Maine. Some things never change. Their requirements were for a high level of human comfort and, equally, canine comfort, with convenient outdoor spaces to share with family and friends as well as lots of color! By collaborating with an experienced Maine landscape firm, Daune was able to marry the house to the land. She reestablished privacy by using mixed native species and defined the client’s water views with minimal disturbance.
From the client:
“Daune Peckham is unlike any landscape designer you’ve ever known. No repetitious re-use of stale designs. Everything perfectly tailored to the land on which it sits, the house it complements, and the people it pleases and makes proud. Her unique designs creatively utilize native species and skilled local artisans and materials. At three disparate locations (the Back Bay of Boston, the seashores of Rhode Island, and the rocky shores of Maine) she has brought to life special gardens and a treasure of landscapes and hardscapes. Our house is her house, in the most meaningful of ways.”


There’s a lot to like about Eucomis ‘Sparkling Burgundy’. The summer flowers of this sun loving South African native are the big attention grabbers, rising straight out of the low foliage, looking like wine-red pineapples carried on stout stems. This gives the impression of a tropical plant, yet Eucomis ‘Sparkling Burgundy’ is in fact hardy in all but very cold districts.
The flowers are very long lasting on the plant. Even when they start to set seed there’s sufficient colour to ensure they are still eye catching. If you can bear to pick them they are great in the vase too.
There’s also very good foliage with this plant, in lovely shades of green and burgundy, which is striking from spring to late summer.
In containers it’s exciting, providing a decidedly exotic look.
This is a plant to make use of for drama in the garden. Use its bold form among other plants with strong shapes, such as flaxes. Imagine a group of Eucomis ‘Sparkling Burgundy’ with the dark chocolate foliage of Phormium ‘Black Rage’. Or as a foreground to the layered foliage of Loropetalum ‘China Pink’.
As a statement plant among low, ground covering plants it’s superb. Contrast its boldness and colours with the black mondo grass, Ophiopogon nigrescens ‘Black Dragon’, or ground covering, dense growing, white flowered Bacopa ‘Blizzard’. For a long season of colour contrast, grow it with one of the new and amazingly free flowering Gazanias such as ‘Sunset Jane’ which has honey coloured flowers all summer.
There’s lots of fun too to be had by growing ‘Sparkling Burgundy’ among bronze tussock grasses such as Carex testacea. Other natives to mingle it with include Cassinia ‘Greenhills’, a hardy ground cover with palest creamy yellow foliage and flowers to match.
Or it can be included, in very well drained soils, among succulents such as Echeveria ‘Blue Curl’ which has thick foliage in tones of blue, with red and purple edges."

The Parish Council has been working for some time on a project to improve and refurbish The Green. Last year a consultation was held on a design which was then amended to reflect residents’ comments. The main elements of the scheme are new road and pavement surfacing incorporating attractive paving, new crossings to enable pedestrians to reach the central Green from all three sides, improved drainage, new street furniture and planting.
The scheme has now been costed and discussions held on how the approximately £1.9 million total cost could be funded. As funding will not be available for the full scheme in one year, the project will have to be phased. A first phase costing between £400,000 and £500,000 appears to be realistic, jointly funded by the Community Infrastructure Funds (“CIL”) held by the District and Parish councils.
We have asked the project architect to modify the design to enable the scheme to be delivered in three or four phases. The main change is to have an un-patterned surface and to largely keep to existing road widths.
The Council has agreed that phase one of the scheme will comprise new pavements on two sides (Co-op and newsagent) , kerb modifications to improve turning at the corners, improved drainage to address the flooding at the eastern corner, the new crossings, humps to slow traffic at the entrances to The Green and some new furniture and planting.
The architect will now produce a detailed phase one design. We hope to present the scheme to residents for approval in a public vote in the first quarter of 2020.

For many people, pond
kits are easier to use when creating a pond for the first time.
It is easier to let the experts put everything together and then add
your own personal touches after the pond is installed and working.
A pond kit will usually include the following items: pond liners,
filters, pumps, skimmers, pvc pipes, check valve assembly, and a silicon
Now, depending on the manufacturer, some pond kits will include lighting,
waterfalls, fountains, bio-seed, plant food, and more. It really all
depends on your taste, time, and budget. Pond kits start around $600
and can run up to $5000. So, you really need to take time to plan
the kind of pond you want before you start shopping for a pond kit.
When planning on your new pond, there are several points to consider.
You will need to think about size, type, the materials in the pond,
whether you want a waterfall or a fountain, and the placement of the
pond. You will also need to put aside time to install and maintain
your pond, so plan accordingly.
Pond kits come in a wide variety. A quick search on the internet
will bring up many sites selling several different types of pond kits.
You can get kits that come in a portable wooden fountain, or a pond
kit that helps you build a natural-looking pond in the ground. There
are also bird pond kits, pond kits in a barrel, and many more. Your
pond is only limited by your creativity.
For instructions on assembling or installing your pond kit, you will
want to refer to your own kit. But there are some general rules for
installation that you will want to know before you begin. First, decide
where you want to place your pond. Decide on the shape and size and
then outline it with yarn or chalk.
When digging your hole, start about two inches outside of the line
and dig down at least 18 inches. If you are planning on having Koi
fish, you will need to dig down at least 2 feet. Next, you will want
to smooth out the edges and the bottom. Lay sand on the bottom to
smooth it out further and to assist with drainage. You will then put
in your pond liner. After that, much of the installation varies depending
on what kind of pond you are building.
Using the above suggestions, you should be able to find a pond kit
that fits your needs and creates a beautiful focal point in your garden.
