Yoneyama-Teien is a professional garden design and construction company founded by master of gardening, Takumi Yoneyama. Our policy is to construct a garden which has roots of local culture and focuses on landscape that is designed by using natural materials as much as possible.
Recently, modern Japanese gardens are changing from traditional style, under the influence of westernization. However, we construct gardens ,putting a high value on traditional spirit and technique. We are a specialist group who construct pure Japanese traditional gardens. Let us help you live along with Japanese culture.

What we can construct with our technique
We construct garden with theme you want (Examples : Wabi-sabi, Zen, Kare-sansui, Tourou, Sonkyo, Pond). The following pictures are samples of gardens that we did. You can see our spirituality and technique here.
* Space design
The most important point in Japanese gardens is the composition of space. We design and construct , considering the history of the local area, shape, area, climate, direction, soil quality, and etc, so that the garden can be the best for our client.
* Take-gaki (Bamboo fences)
We craft various bamboo fences with traditional techniques carried on from generation to generation. Matake (Japanese endemic bamboo) and Mousouchiku (bamboo that was introduced from China and became popular in Japan) are materials for it. To consider the natural environment, we use whole bamboo including branches and ears without waste. Design pattern of bamboo fences is various. We cover most of the design of bamboo fences in Japan. We design and construct bamboo fences to maximize the appeal of the garden of our client.
* Ishi-zumi (Masonry)
Stone fence is one of the parts of gardens where a gardener's technique is most needed. It can be seen in most of the historic sites in Japan and is an essential composition of the Japanese landscape. We are particularly good at masonry construction methods. Kind of stones and the way of stacking stones changes the expression of the garden. We are well-experienced and confident of masonry that can be matched with other compositions the most, not only one structure. We can also construct angled masonry called Shiroishi-zumi, which can be seen in many Japanese castles.
Pond / Flow (Small river) / Fall
Many Japanese gardens are the epitome of Japanese landscape with some themes. Gardens with water, one of the important composition elements of the Japanese landscape, have been constructed all the time. In the present day, the premise is small and it is hard to construct ponds and small rivers in the area. However, the sound of murmuring water and the carp swimming in the pond make us feel like a Japanese garden. Especially, a pond with a thin water depth reflects a variety of landscape and makes the garden more impressive.
Kare-sansui is the way of the garden that expresses the landscape with mountain and water by using stone and sand only, not water. For example, the garden of Ryoanji is famous. Adding ripples on white sands by rake, It looks like the surface of the water. Even if it is not that large, you can construct Kare-sansui at home. Necessary technique to construct Kare-sansu is the ability of space design and choices. Only a well-experienced gardener can make a landscape with stone and sand only.
Have you seen a Japanese garden landscape with a combination of three stones? Its combination is called Sanzon-seki and it means Buddah of Buddhism that Japanese have believed for a long time. It looks like it is just a combination of three stones. But it is a composition element that requires high technique, from the point of view of a gardener. Because the choice of height, shape, color and combination is limitless and the right choice doesn't exist. By setting three stones well, the landscape can be more beautiful and flesher with harmony.
* Tourou (Japanese Lantern)
Tourou (Japanese Lanterns) are lightning equipment introduced from old China. It is made of stone, strong for rain/wind, and no worries about fire. So it spread all over Japan. The earliest one is enough only if it lights on. However, as time goes by, design has been added year by year and in the 7th century around, it has become the basic shape of Tourou of the present day. Tourou is the element that can produce the most promising Japanese landscape. There are many choices of styles, size, and price. So we support you so that you can make the best choice together. (As the structure is vulnerable to earthquakes, we consider countermeasures for it together as well).
* Tsukubai / Suikinkutsu
Tsukubai is the essential structure to get water in the tea garden and installed as one of the facilities in Japanese gardens. Stone plates filled with water and arranged stones are landscapes of Japanese culture itself. We have high techniques at designing and constructing Tsukubai and support clients who want to install Sonkyo. Suikinkutsu is a structure that echoes the sound of falling water droplets and produces a beautiful tone that we can't explain with words. Its structure is made by digging a hall under the drain of Tsukubai and putting large pottery upside-down. From about 200years to several decades ago, it was made with high techniques carried on by gardener from generation to generation. We support constructing the Sukinkutsu.
* Koke-niwa (Moss garden)
In Japan, Humidity and temperature is suitable for growing moss. So there are beautiful moss gardens all over Japan. We are also good at designing and constructing moss gardens. Depending on the surrounding environment, we choose the best kind of moss from a variety of mosses. Moss plants are being studied in space.
* Hanchiku-Dobei (Rammed earth wall)
Hanchiku-Dobei is a rammed earth wall. Horyu-ji and Ryoan-ji in Japan and the Great wall in China are famous for this construction method. We are good at the method. We have a wide range of style of wall from classic one with rustic look to designated one like mural with a pattern.
Where you can see our design and construction technique
It is not surprising that you can't tell the atmosphere of the garden from pictures on the web. Though we can't introduce gardens of individual homes with the highest number of our constructions due to their privacy, you can go and see our work, in some restaurants and temples. Please visit our works and see mentarility and the technique of Yoneyama Teien's constructing garden.
* Matsubara-an, Yuigahama
Matsubara-an is a soba restaurant made by renovating an old folks house built around 1940. We were engaged in space design and construction. Continuously we keep supporting pruning. Please see if our technique can match with your ideal, while having delicious soba.
*We designed and constructed the garden of both the main store and branch. We recommend you to see the garden of the main store.
* Kadomatsu in Eastern Japan area of the FONZ group that they manage is made by Yoneyama Teien.
* Chosho-ji, Yokohama
We were engaged in the garden repairing construction. We designed the garden, making the best use of about 40 Kitayama-Osugi cedars growing in precincts for 250years.
* Kantsu-ji, Tokyo
We were engaged in the main garden repairing construction. We re-constructed ponds, re-arranged planting and constructed a Daitokuji-gaki as partition. Daitokuji-gaki is especially a valuable bamboo fence that is hard to make.
Message from CEO
If you want to construct a Japanese garden, please kindly contact me. I always would like to support people that highly respect Japanese tradition and landscape, and construct gardens for such people. Also I keep learning about gardens so that I can support them construct gardens when time comes. Where I do daily work is also a place to train my techniques while constructing Japanese gardens. I belong to the Garden Society of Japan and am a branch manager of the Kanagawa branch. We are inspiring and enhancing each other with like-minded people.
Now the landscape company with a Japanese traditional mentality and techniques is getting less. There are no borders in the feeling of love for Japanese gardens. The most important thing is only one thing, to love Japanese gardens. I design and construct gardens with mentality and techniques carried on, for the people loving Japan from the bottom of their heart.

Quality of urban space becomes a vital aspect of urban development. “Q City Plan · Qinhuangdao International Student Design Competition” is a trial to enhance the quality and diversity of micro public space in Qinhuangdao, and also an important approach to achieve effective urban regeneration in the redevelopment process.
“Q City Plan” try to alter the traditional way of urban planning that follows the logic of top-bottom, considering from macro-scale to micro-scale. It adopts a new thought of people-oriented humanistic planning through a ‘trivial-to-grand’ mechanism, which is expected to make a remedy and complement for the traditional urban planning of macroscopic narrative.
“Q City Plan · Qinhuangdao International Student Design Competition” is an event open to all university and university and college students from fields such as urban planning, architecture design, landscape design, artistic design worldwide, providing them a platform to show their talent based on the real built environment of Qinhuangdao as the foundation for their creation and inspiration. It is a global open call for the creative ideas of microscopic renovation, artistic installation, with a hope to find more possible paths for the regeneration of Qinhuangdao in the future. This competition will invite acclaimed urban planners and architects as jury to assess the proposals. Wining projects have possibilities to be implemented on site.
In the forthcoming competitions of city branding, the winners will be those providing their residents a better quality of life. “Q City Plan · Qinhuangdao International Student Design Competition” is a new way to make the public space diverse and interesting through directly intervening in the specific built environments instead of huge landscape axis, large scale landscape nodes, to complement the insufficient research and design on micro spaces in cities. It is more like an acupuncture, which insert needles into the body of one city on certain points to heal and invigorate it with a small-scale intervention.
What set the “Q City Plan · Qinhuangdao” different from others are the degree of autonomy that is given to the participants. Types of design are not restrictive and the site of project is supposed to be selected by the participants themselves. Under the most appropriate conditions these projects can be implemented. Participants can be the principals of their own design and construction, who own the right to control all aspects of projects including designs, materials, constructions and costs.
Qinhuangdao is a port city on the coast of northeastern Hebei province, China, and located in the centre of Bohai Region. It borders the Yan Mountains in the north, Bohai Bay in the south, Beijing-Tianjin in the west and Liaoning-Shenyang in the east.It is a national comprehensive transportation hub city in China, an important node city of urban coordinated development of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region, and the only “Costal City with long coastline” in Hebei Province. Having four districts (Haihang, Shanhaiguan, Beidaihe, Funing), three counties (Changli, Lulong and Qinglong Manchu Autonomous County) and two zones (Qinhuangdao Economic and Technology Development Zone and Beidaihe New Zone), Qinhuangdao covers a land area of 7,802 km2 with a population of 3.11 million.

With the growing popularity and demand for artificial grass, many homeowners are looking at it as a possible option for their backyard space. If you had any experience maintaining a lawn, you know it is a lot of work and maintenance! After only a few days since you mowed your lawn, the grass starts to grow again. If you are tired of having to constantly spend your time maintaining your lawn and more on enjoying your beautiful outdoor space, you need to get in touch with Green Print Synthetic Grass Perth company.
Contrary to popular belief, fake grass does not look fake at all. In fact, a novice would have easily mistaken an artificial turf to be made out of real grass. If you have considered to install fake turf in your lawn, talk to a rep from Green Print Synthetic Grass Perth to find out about how to install and maintain it.
Artificial Grass 101
Artificial grass is often made of polymer materials along with sand or ground rubber. This makes the material soft to touch and also be able to absorb shock. It was in the year 1964 when artificial grass was discovered to use as an alternative for athletic fields. This makes it possible to maintain the field throughout the year even when there is lack of sunlight to support the grass’ growth.
Today, artificial grass is no longer limited within just athletic fields. They are also popular for commercial and residential landscaping.
Installation of Artificial Grass
The act of installing artificial grass on your lawn is similar in concept as laying carpet. Make sure that each layer is stretched tightly. This will secure the artificial grass on its base. Also, make sure that the seams are not visible. There are several products used to install the fake grass, which is why it is important to tap only a professional installer rather than doing it on your own.
The kind of treatments required for the installation of artificial grass varies from one manufacturer to another. Hence, it is important to check the requirements for your artificial grass before you install them.
Even though artificial grass does not require as much maintenance as real grass does, it is important to give it proper care. This will ensure that the artificial grass landscape will last for several years.
Naturally, you do not have to water synthetic grass or weed it out. However, you need to spray it with a disinfectant from time to time to ensure that they stay clean and free from any source of possible infection. If you own a dog and run around your lawn most of the time, you should clean the synthetic turf more often.
Majority of artificial turfs come with a long term warranty (some can be up to 15 years). If you are buying from Green Print Synthetic Grass Perth, you can ensure top quality artificial turf. If you choose the right material or style, you can get the best looking lawn you can imagine and make it last for several years.


The garden is an enchanting oasis of tranquility with swimming pool, ponds, water fountains
and gorgeous plants, deciduos and evergreen, even palm trees and bonsai. The automatic
irrigation systems keep the garden always fresh and idyllic. It is hard to believe that the
vibrant downtown of Budapest is only 20 minutes away from this marvellous place.


It’s that time of year when a little lightness starts to lift the spirits. The end of March means sunshine and smiles – and a sense of needing to be outdoors soaking up any rays Yorkshire is lucky enough to linger under.
It’s officially Spring, we lost an hour when the clocks sprung forward which didn’t help the hangover after a friend’s 30th birthday party, but it was too exciting to stay feeling sorry for ourselves for long. It’s time to get things done!
A well-spent Mother’s Day was a fabulous time to wonder at all the amazing things we could create in the garden. Dave had built a big flower bed on the sunniest side of the house last year which has spent the winter looking sad and empty. Now we could finally start playing with colour, texture and shape, planting the seed quite literally for something pretty special by the time summer comes around.
Here’s what we did:
Operation tidy up:
Rose ~ I was pretty sure I’d killed off a gorgeous pink rose my friend Katie had bought me as a housewarming gift this time last year. But there’s hope yet!
- Lifting the rose out of the pot revealed tons of white roots wrapped around the soil – it needed a bigger pot. We teased the roots loose around the sides and base to help it find a home in it’s new bigger space.
- A new pot was found and stones placed in the bottom to cover the base (just to stop soil from falling out). Paper would also do just as well if you have any magazines lying around.
- We mixed soil and potting compost (and here you would also add slow release fertiliser granules if you had any) and filled the pot up to the height of the plant.
- With its new home ready we took to work chopping off all the dead stems and twiggy / straggly ugly bits, then also cut away any inward growing stems as this will mean any new growth will form a nice outward shape.
- Next, we were ruthless and chopped outward stems down by half their length up to an outward facing bud. Cut the stem in a diagonal as you would with cut flowers.
- Finally we popped the newly pruned rose in its new pot, filled in soil around it until tightly bedded in and then topped with potting compost! A good water and it’s good to go.
New beginnings in the flower bed:
With planting it’s best to divide and conquer. Think of it as though considering a bunch of flowers – groupings that go together because of their varied heights and complimenting colours. There’s more to it of course such as light and shade, but it’s a good starting point.
Section 1: Along the fence
- This section is a little bit pic n mix at the moment with a small number of plants already there. We shuffled the fern back to the corner where it’s shadier and left the foxgloves where they are for now as seem happy enough. The ground is part shade part sun depending on the time of day.
- We marked out a path line in front of the fence using an old decking plank.
- In front of this we planted a row of lady’s mantle which will create a frothy yellow fizz of flowers over summer (June – Sep). My mother-in-law-to-be and garden guru Susan often refers to Sarah Raven as a garden expert so I’m going to use her links to plants where possible. I used Susan’s cuttings and you can be pretty rough and ready snapping off the stick-like roots to plant quite shallow in the ground.
- Sadly this activity was not without tidying up. We cleared the ground as we went. There were A LOT of weeds but no pain no gain and it was a good workout too!
- In between the fox gloves we also planted pretty little primulas – mine aren’t this colour but this gives a good idea, and the best part is they have flowers now (March – May) so something nice to look at sooner. They need shade when the flowers go so they can hide under the foxglove leaves. A good pairing!
Section 2: In the main bed
- Again we divided this space in two with a makeshift path using bits and bobs of stone and old planks for now to create the right shape.
- We decided to line the path with tall plants as brushing against plants creates a fun atmosphere / experience when everything is fully grown and full of life. I always like gardens with secret walkways and bits to discover, this is a mini version of that.
- The tallest plants to go in first of all are verbena banarensis. This will be joined by white cosmos (may not be this exact one) and tall alliums – all great for arranging indoors too.
- From there we fanned outwards with middle height plants next and short neat plants at the front which will drape over the decking edge.
- I’m not loving the heather which was already in here but I’m putting up with it for now and trimmed it back so a nice green bun. It looks a little better and the new interesting things are helping to distract me!
That’s all for now!

“One of Europe’s largest structural transformation projects was launched after 160 years of steel working history.” A modern residential complex with space for services and a broad variety of leisure facilities has been built in recent years on a 125-hectare property.
‘Phoenix Lake’ in Dortmund is an expanse of water measuring roughly 25 hectares, located within a 100-hectare property once home to the now defunct Hermannshütte oxygen steel works. And despite the modern development now spread across the land, today’s prestigious project in the city of Dortmund forges links to its industrial origins. The once towering furnace operated by a German steel manufacturer dominated the surroundings and gave the city of Dortmund its face. Today, beautifully designed grating made of moulded steel adorns the modern estate. Here, 150m² of decorative Staco gratings were installed as railings, while an additional 120 m² was fitted around trees as a means of protection – at the same time lending a positive touch to the modern look of the local cityscape.
The heavy duty gratings of galvanised steel supplied with a meash of 33,3x16,6 are used as tree protection. The small mesh prevents falling through of dirt and protects against pollution and vandalism. The root area is especially protected by the grating, the open grid surface also provides optimal conditions for soil respiration and irrigation. Whether a tree protection grille, bench, trash can or as elaborate ceiling paneling - gratings are in very many areas a failed alternative!
The architectural elements and curved structures that blend beautifully into the landscape are particularly convincing aspects of this project.
Gratings have long since emerged from the doldrums as a mere industrial product, and are becoming increasingly incorporated into design projects. Indeed, it has made an important contribution to the eye-catching architecture of innumerable buildings.

All of us wants to have a green lawn outside our house, but we get fed up, with the maintenance of grass and plants, to maintain their look. Why not go for a synthetic turf installation, to get rid of those worries of lawn maintenance.
In case you are wondering how to lay synthetic grass, follow the following simple steps.
* Remove the natural grass or plantation from the area where you are planning to install artificial grass. Preferably use a sod cutter for this task since it cuts uniformly across the lawn.
* Install a composite board along the four sides of the area of installation.
* Dig a six inches deep trench along the edge of the area of installation.
* Put the composite board in the channel, so the top of the border is about one inch to 3/4″ below the top surface of the ground.
* Disable the irrigation lines that were previously used for the natural grass irrigation.
* Add one-inch self-compacting gravel. Add gravel so that it is a quarter inch above the composite border level, keep the centre of the area a little raised. Flat synthetic turf installs look fake.
* Rake the area using a 3-foot aluminium rake. This rake has teeth on one side, and the back has a flat blade. Rake out the best you can.
* Wet the area thoroughly but it should not flood the area. Wait for around 10 minutes to let it cure the area.
* Now use the plate compactor to make the area even. Use a broom to remove excess material on the edges.
* Spread a weed mat on the area now. Secure it properly so that after installation, it would not bulge out and stays even.
* Add the artificial turf. The grass is typically available in 15 feet width, and you should join it width wise.
* To start the installation, unroll the first bundle, laying it close to the edge and then unroll other bundles by its side length wise. Keep on putting them in this sequence.
* Make the joints – You can glue your joint, or you can use staples. Using glue and professional seaming tape gives the best result. It makes joint hard to detect. This factor becomes very important if you are installing artificial grass on the playgrounds.
* Now apply the infill. The last step in this process is to use the infill. Infill keeps the blades upright and gives the turf a more realistic look. You may use silica sand, and acrylic green coated sand or deodorising infills. For most purposes, the sand works fine.
To apply the infill, use a broom to make the blades stand upright. Then carefully use a flat shovel to place the infill to the turf. Roughly 1.5 lbs infill per square foot of lawn is OK. Now brush again until the infill is evenly spread.
Now you are ready to enjoy your artificial lawn. However, if you find it difficult to do the installation yourself, there are many experts out there who can do artificial grass installation professionally. You only have to find the best for the best outcome. Family and friends can be of great benefit during your search as you can get referrals from them. The Internet can as well do you good as you can read reviews and make an easy decision on which turf installation experts to hire.

Green roofs - a good design and ecology in one.
Text and photos: Mariola Weindich-Mašek
12 June 2018
Probably everyone connects green roofs with Scandinavia, where they are an integral part of a landscape. Can you imagine streets of your cities covered in greenery? Thanks to this solution we would not only be closer to nature in the middle of the city, but above all - the amount of greenery and released oxygen will be bigger, and traffic noise and the amount of carbon dioxide will be reduced.
Green roofs are not a technological revolution. In Scandinavia such solutions were very often applied from the ninth to the nineteenth century. They were cheap, and at the same time – they protected from the sun and they absorbed rainwater. Proper purlin-tenaille roof construction withstood without any problem turf, snow, and it resisted strong wind. In countries where climate is hot, green roofs were used on residential buildings. There, they protect the interiors from heat.
Green roof is associated with additional costs, but it also has a lot of advantages. First of all, you should remember that it purifies the air. Larger surface increases oxygen level and reduces the level of carbon dioxide in the air. Green roofs have also a significant impact on reducing noise. Street noise can be reduced by about 20-30dB, and 40-50dB indoor depending on the type of roof.
Another advantage is that they do not heat up as fast as conventional roofs. During heat, temperatures on classic ones can reach up to 80 degrees. Meanwhile, the maximum temperature on a green roof is 40 degrees. It can also be a kind of an additional insulation - both thermal and protective ones. Green roofs are not only a perfect ecological solution. It is also an example of how you can easily change the look of the space surrounding us. A green roof can be very simple, but we can also create a beautiful composition, thanks to which our house will be distinguished from others.
Though in Poland green roofs are little-known, this solution can be found on public buildings. You can see the green garden on the roof of Warsaw University Library. The garden consists of 4 separate gardens: Golden Garden, Carmine Garden, Green Garden and Gold Garden. In each of them there are different species of plants, picked by their colour. The green area of the roof is one hectare. This project was completed in 2001. Another green roof in Warsaw is located on the building of the Supreme Court. Its area is 1600 square meters. It was built in the late 90s and it is only a decoration of the building.
Although interest in green roofs increases, still it is not a currently proposed and used solution. However, with increasing environmental problems of todays world they can become not only a pleasure, but a necessity in the future.


YouthBuild is proud to emphasize green practices throughout its operation, including:
YouthBuild McLean County advocates a sustainable culture that is incorporated into our construction, education and office practices. This culture inspired the staff and students at YouthBuild to create a rain garden for our YouthBuild site. The construction of the rain garden not only helped to establish a sustainable environment for YouthBuild students but was also seen as an opportunity to integrate environmental awareness into the educational curriculum. A group of students learned about the water cycle, water pollution and other water issues, and how rain gardens can mitigate some of these issues. This project was made possible by the Illinois Rain Garden Initiative Grant, sponsored by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources, the Illinois Conservation Foundation and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
What is a rain garden?
A rain garden is a garden of native plants in a small depression to temporarily hold rainwater runoff from roofs, driveways and other impervious surfaces. Rain gardens effectively remove pollutants from rainwater runoff collected from these surfaces because they act as a filtration system to prevent fertilizer, chemicals, oil, garbage and bacteria from entering nearby streams and ponds. They also help with stormwater and flood control by allowing more water to soak into the ground. Not only are rain gardens aesthetically pleasing, they also require very little maintenance and attract beneficial birds, butterflies and insects.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, VIRGINIA HISTORIC GARDEN WEEK, APRIL 17-20, 2010
Are you ready for spring? The answer is an unqualified, YES!
Forget the snow, curl up with your gardening catalogs now, dream of spring and make plans to come to Historic Garden Week in Charlottesville, VA, April 17-20, 2010.
You will see all types of gardens to inspire every gardening passion from cottage gardens to cutting gardens to annual, perennial, herb and water gardens. Estate homes and gardens, country homes and gardens, the gardens and estate at Monticello, and the gardens of the University of Virginia are just some of the offerings that you will enjoy.
You will surely want to stay several days to take in all of the programs. At Sugar Hollow we are happy to offer you comfortable accommodations in a beautiful country setting - a perfect compliment to your garden touring and a restful bed and breakfast retreat at the end of the day. Let us know if you need assistance purchasing tickets. We will be happy to assist you.
Go to the Charlottesville/Albemarle Garden Club website for details on schedule, garden locations and purchasing tickets.


You’ll be able to easily set up a wild garden by planting hardy yet decorative shade-tolerant plants among the many bushes in an informal pattern. Their silhouettes will be an exquisite part of the garden, particularly in winter when the dark shadows stand out on the white snow. Eleanor Roosevelt National Historic Site, authorized in 1977, preserves Eleanor’s retreat, which President Franklin D. Roosevelt carved out of a distant corner of his household’s Hyde Park, New York estate. Lillies, alliums, and crocosmia are hardy, summer-flowering bulbs best to plant in September and October. Daffodils, crocus, and hyacinth are spring-flowering bulbs that can be finest planted by the tip of September. Growing in planters can be an excellent place, to begin with. Ensure that the soil underneath the bulb the roots will develop is wholesome and of excellent quality.
Gardeners dwelling east of the Mississippi will discover using containers as an important option to broaden their palette of perennials, particularly relating to growing xeric plants that can be sad in the bottom because of excessive moisture and soggy freeze-thaw situations in spring. Select summer time-flowering bulbs corresponding to gladiolus in early spring. Put together your soil with compost before selecting the bulbs you wish to develop. Pack the soil you used to cover your new plant firmly but not too tightly to forestall air pockets. You may plant fall-flowering bulbs in the late summer season, such as the nerines. Thyme teas will be utilized as an expectorant along with a soothing gargle to scale back the redness connected with tender throats, coughs along with bronchitis.
Going To thumbnail most likely provides lessons you should use with your friend. Scents range from floral, flowering shrubs fruits, and spices; a group of several varieties gives uncommon olfactory treats. A container that dimension ensures enough room for root growth. Use it as a container plant where it’s mounding; flowing behavior combines well with taller plants. This permits your contractor to provide fitting supplies to get the job done nicely. For smaller gardens, decreasing plants will work better. Wider and fuller beds with taller and distinct plants will work for large houses. Yes, however, I don’t wish to go somewhere I’ll want it. 2. Dig the opening where you want the bulbs to go. Make certain your soil is properly draining and solely pick bulbs that aren’t gentle and exhibit signs of mold for healthy growth.


Laura Place is a much-loved part of our community landscape. However, the current streetscape doesn’t live up to its grand surroundings. An exciting idea has been put forward by local Architect Erica Timothy to redesign the fountain and create a more Piazza like feel to the area. The ideas are at an early stage and a committee has been formed which PERA is involved with to explore the viability of the ideas. Should there be a way forward, there will be a wider discussion with the local community. In the mean-time watch this space for updates. The committee member responsible for this project is Peter Knight.


A project to green Wandsworth prison, one of Europe's largest prisons
Greening Wandsworth prison
The Unlocking Nature project is an initiative to "green" HMP Wandsworth, one of Europe's largest prisons. With help from lead garden designer Adolfo Harrison and partners, a new atmosphere is beginning to take shape, as the new green spaces will not only transform a view from prison cells that has changed little in the prison's 166-year history, but will also reduce symptoms of poor mental health and stress, as well as violent aggression and antisocial behaviour. As part of the project, bee hives will be added which will not only benefit the prison's new gardens but the staff and prisoners as well.


Recently, I had a bit of time on my hands and I took the opportunity to walk around the neighborhood. As I turned into the more residential part of Canonbury, I stumbled across the New River Walk.
That's one thing I really appreciate about London. There're still pockets all over the city that dated way back. According to an information board strategically installed at its entrance, New River Walk goes all the way back to 1613. The brainchild of Sir Hugh Myddelton, whose stone statue now stands at the southern tip of Islington Green (the green patch in front of Waterstone). The waterway was constructed to bring fresh drinking water from River Lea from Amwell Springs into London itself.
Centuries later, even though the river lies unused, parts of it have been covered over by roads and pavements while portions of it still lay bare and have been converted to public walkways. New River Walk is just one of the many. Algae now covered almos the entire length of New River Walk, which shows how stagnant the water is. A small raft of ducks calls it home and can be seen wading up and down the stretch of water, occasionally standing on a submerged pipe that runs along the riverbed.
But it's not just the river itself for Canonbury itself makes for a pleasant walk when weather permits. Starting from Canonbury Park, the curiously spilt garden square, you can walk towards Estorick Collection of Modern Italian Art and The Canonbury and make a right onto Alwyne Place where a line of houses sheltered with thick foliage awaits. Make a left along Alwyne Road before hitting onto New River Walk itself on the right along Willow Bridge Road. Emerge at St Paul's Road and then turn back on to Canonbury Park South.
Set aside an hour for the walk. Better still, do that on a late cool crisp Sunday morning before pampering yourself with a Sunday roast at The Canonbury. It seldom gets better than that.

New River Walk - Canonbury's (Islington) secret walk


I originally come from a town in the United Kingdom, called Warrington in Cheshire between Liverpool and Manchester. Warrington Museum & Art Gallery displays artefacts from around the world, plus archaeological finds and paintings. Gulliver’s World theme park offers children’s rides. Nearby, a canal runs through leafy Sankey Valley Park, with wildlife, paths and sculpture. South, imposing Walton Hall has parkland, formal gardens and a children’s zoo.


Practical Completion – Joiner’s Road
Our monolithic brick Garden Room extension in Three Crosses is now complete. The new space replaces a redundant conservatory off an existing Kitchen, creating an open plan Dining and Living space. A a new paved terrace wraps around the extension to create an outdoor dining space and generates more of a connection to the tiered lawns above. More to follow.


Golden A’ Design Award Winning Design for Street Furniture Design Category in 2014-2015.
The concept idea behind this project was to totally change the common perception of “urban bench”, using one basic element as a starting point for more complex set-ups, in combination of two or four units. Furthermore, another basic aspect of the design process was to keep the existing infra-structures of the city untouched. So, “just drop & forget” installation method was introduced.

Barge Walk is a 5km section of the Thames Path that runs from Hampton Court Bridge to Kingston Bridge and comes under the ownership of Historic Royal Palaces. ALL Creative was asked to create a new sign scheme for the area which would act as an extension to the sign strategy in place at Hampton Court Palace while respecting the natural environment of the waterslide area.
Having reviewed the multitude of different signs in place along the pathway, we set about devising a scheme that would give Historic Royal Palaces a much stronger visual presence, while dramatically reducing the number of signs required to deliver the necessary information.
Our brief included the remit to create a new physical solution that would reflect the design ethos of the HRP sign strategy while introducing a softer, natural aesthetic. This was achieved by combining a strong signature oak element which was personalised with the HRP brand icon and wording.
The new gateway signs now welcome all visitors to Barge Walk, providing improved directional wayfinding, a specially drawn heads-up style orientation map, historical and natural interpretation about the area and essential information for everyone using the space
The new scheme has recieved excellent feedback and praise from Historic Royal Palaces and is already having a positive impact in promoting awareness of the organisation and its role to all visitors to the area.

The final presentation of the Dilijan City Park project for renovation and development was held. The meeting took place in the format of an open discussion with residents and guests of the city of different professions and age groups. The opinions and ideas of the participants received during the presentation will be taken into account while finalizing the final concept.
Dilijan City Park is the main city’s green public space. At the moment, the park does not meet modern standards of improvement. In 2022, within the Dilijan Comprehensive Development Program Impulse Management Company and Project Group 8 architects team initiated a park renovation project.
This is the first project in Armenia using the participatory design method, where, in addition to architects, sociologists, anthropologists, dendrologists, water engineers and other specialists, local residents are involved in the development of the project.
During the preparation for the project, the team of architects, in partnership with the Socies sociological center and urban media Urbanista.am, conducted 32 express interviews with park visitors, 29 personal and group interviews with citizens, 12 focus groups, and 3 city-wide discussions. 267 questionnaires from citizens were collected regarding their opinions and requests. In total, more than 600 people took part in the work on the park development concept.
The study of park users and their needs in the framework of the scoping study identified five main requests from the residents of Dilijan, which were reflected in the project:
- The park should work in any weather (sheds from the rain, comfortable paths, and infrastructure for winter recreation are needed).
- The park needs areas for creativity and study.
- The park lacks conditions for interaction with water (piers and boats, an open embankment, and regulated fishing).
- The park should create points of contact between the city and the forest (outputs to hiking trails, connection with Dilijan National Park).
- The park is a visiting card and image of Dilijan (a reflection of the culture, history, identity of the city).
The park improvement project will be launched in stages and will consist of:
– development of an artificial lake zone, where it is planned to create public spaces and infrastructure for the use of water resources;
– the area near the old hotel, which is designed to become the main event platform for mass cultural events;
– improvement of the embankment and the central avenue;
– creating an event field with areas for outdoor work, picnics, and chamber events;
– expansion and renovation of the existing playground;
– improving the existing sports infrastructure and launching new facilities for outdoor and indoor sports.
The full program for the renovation and development of Dilijan city park, sociological research, the results of city discussions, as well as a feedback form for ideas and suggestions are available on the official website of the project.
The project initiators are Impulse management company and Dilijan city park team, the project developer is Project Group 8 team, the media partner is Urbanista.am.

Wetlands Restoration Program
The Common Ground Relief Wetlands Restoration program was created to proactively address the dangers faced by New Orleans and the Gulf Coast Region. We work to bring immediate attention to the ecological and political causes and effects of hurricanes and off-shore drilling. The goal is to shed light on where wetlands restoration needs to happen, determine who should be responsible for doing it and then do it ourselves wherever possible.
We are also dedicated to educating as many people as possible and engaging the community in the restoration effort. The wetlands play a critical role in protecting the coast from storm surge and our goal is to continue to work in solidarity with the people of the Gulf Coast.
We continue to advocate for the restoration of coastal areas imperiled by development and engineering projects that continue to erode precious land, endanger wildlife and threaten the livelihood of centuries old communities along the coast.
To meet these objectives we provide wetland planting opportunities for short term volunteers, convention groups and local civic organizations.
We have partnered with New Orleans based GroundworkNOLA to have students work on the installation of rain gardens and bioswales in commercial areas throughout the city. We also encourage the construction of these storm water retention systems in the landscaped areas surrounding our offices in the Lower Ninth Ward.
Education is the key to successful implementation of these systems. With GroundworkNOLA we have created the Green Team, a mentoring program for environmental science students at the Martin Luther King Jr. Charter School, and other local high schools.
Save The Wetlands
Common Ground Relief Wetlands has operated a tree farm and nursery since March 2009. In January 2013 we acquired property in the Lower Ninth Ward to create a new bottomland tree farm and marsh grass collection. Thousands of trees are currently being grown for our planting projects for various federal and state agencies. The site contains our barn and Cabane Coypu, our interpretive center for area residents, as well as, citrus trees and a variety of climbing roses for residents to cut and enjoy. As part of this effort we are expanding our propagation of marsh grasses in addition to the bottomland hardwood trees we currently grow. Common Ground Relief also operates a marsh grass farm at Angola Penitentiary. This farm is part of a larger horticulture licensing course being offered to inmates through a program offered by Baton Rouge Community College.
We encourage college students and others from around the country who are interested in urban reforestation, watersheds and storm water plans to join us.
For information email firstname.lastname@example.org or call 504.442.2314.


We believe that every person should have the opportunity to play, socialize and imagine.
We aim to create playground and urban furniture environments for the benefit of young and old.
We therefore plan our playground experiences to stimulate children to move and encourage them to find common ground and share experiences and our urban furniture for the use in both public and private sectors such as waiting rooms, hospitals, airports, parks or terraces, gardens and much more.
Our goal is to provide our customers with products, and services able to meet their every need. From assistance in the selection of the correct products, to the supply of playground and urban furniture, ending with reliable aftersales service.

Cycle to the Gardens
Posted by chdot on January 31, 2007
The aim is “to raise awareness and understanding of the importance of Edinburgh’s urban green spaces through increasing intellectual and physical access to public and private parks and gardens within the city. Edinburgh Parks and Gardens Open Day also aims to put the importance of green space for biodiversity, health and recreation on the city agenda.”
So why not plan a route to see a selection of this year’s Open PaGs (Saturday May 5th). Check last year’s programme (PDF – 3MB) for an idea of likely participants.
If you would like to open your Edinburgh garden or greenspace for the event or know of anyone else who may like to, contact Caroline Lambie at the Cockburn Association: 0131 557 8686.
The great thing about cycling between the venues is that you won’t have to worry (too much) about parking and you can appreciate bits of the city that you might not be familiar with. Perhaps TryCycling in Edinburgh will organise a special ride!


New Village Green Park Playground Coming Soon!
Beginning the week of August 10th, Caughlin Ranch staff will begin demolishing and removing the existing playground equipment and play surface. Once completed, the contractor will install a new ADA compliant play surface and new playground equipment. The contractor’s work will take approximately one (1) month to complete. The playground will remain closed until all work is complete.
While work is in progress, please keep away from the area which is being fenced off for safety purposes.
We hope to hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony to officially open the new playground. Stay tuned for further details.
We thank you in advance for your patience and understanding as we continue to improve the Caughlin Ranch park experience.

Public Parks and Parkways.
Colorado Springs, Colo.
August 3, 1901
Mr. Ehrich has requested me to give, for the "Century Chest," some facts relating to our public parks and parkways, and to forecast in a measure, the conditions in that respect one hundred years hence.
The most useful pieces of public ground we have at the present are Acacia Park and Alamo Square, both of which are in the heart of the town. They are each of the size of an ordinary city block, are shaded by cottonwood trees (a few of other kinds just started), have walks extended through them, and drinking fountains in the center. Upon their grassy surfaces and beneath the shade of the trees are placed seats for the accommodation of those who wish to use them. On summer evenings bands of music entertain the people here. They are much frequented by both residents and tourists. The new County court house is being erected in Alamo Square. This building will occupy a portion of its space, but is not likely to greatly curtail its usefulness as a park.
The Park at Prospect Lake contains seventy-five acres, of which the lake covers an area of say forty acres. Although but slightly embellished, the trees being small, the place gives promise of future beauty and usefulness. As yet, no car line has been extended to it, and the amusement features (bathing, boating, etc.) are somewhat crude.
Willow Park, a tract of twenty acres, lying along Monument Creek, is pretty much in a state of nature. Native trees (mostly narrow-leaf cottonwood) and wild shrubs and vines abound. Up to the present time but little use has been made of this park.
The College Campus, of about twenty acres, has just been graded, grass sown and a few trees planted. It lies in one of the best residence parts of the town, and is likely to be of great use to both college and people. At this writing the Coburn Library and Perkins Memorial Hall are the only buildings on the ground, excepting the small frame structure used for the primary and kindergarten school of Miss Bessie Henry. An excavation for cellar and foundations of the Scientific Building has just been made.
Dorchester Park, near the south end of town, is an uncultivated tract of six acres, with a scattering growth of cottonwood - and weeds galore!
The Antlers Park is quite good of the kind. Has considerable shade, grass, walks, trees, some flowers, and benches (or settees). The city owns seven acres of this ground and the hotel company two acres.
The Boulder Reservoir site, on east Boulder street, cannot in its present state be considered a park. The city owns the ground (some six acres) of which about four acres are covered with water. No trees nor planting of any kind.
North Cheyenne Park is a tract of 640 acres acquired by the city some years ago, largely through the efforts of M.L.DeCoursey, then residing here. The city authorities have extended some little care and protection to the place and constructed a carriage road through it. It is mainly, however, in its natural state, and has much rugged grandeur and beauty, of which in truth it will never be deprived.
From the laying out of the town up to the present time the need for public parks has not seemed pressing. As yet our population is not great, and the surrounding region is so varied and picturesque as to largely satisfy the demand for parks.
A Look Forward
It is reasonable to suppose that by the year 2001 Colorado Springs will possess several large outlying or rural parks. It is to be hoped that ere that time some generous person will have purchased and donated to the city the South Cheyenne Caņon, which, together with the North Cheyenne Caņon, would constitute one of the most wonderful and unique public parks in America.
It is more than likely, too, that Austin Bluffs, and possibly the low hills northward, will have been added to the park system.
Bear Creek Caņon has also many natural attractions, and might well be devoted to park uses.
The Garden of the Gods is also another notable spot which should certainly be utilized for park purposes.
In fact there are many places along the near-by foothills which would be available for additions to the rural or country parks.
Many small parks, or gardens, of one or more acres, should be established within the city limits for the benefit of those living in their vicinity. Along Shook's Run, as it now exists, there are a number of sites well adapted for such use.
At this time Nevada Avenue is "parked" (rows of trees and a strip of grass) along its center through nearly its entire length. Wood Avenue has a similar parking for about two blocks, and steps have been taken to park (more elaborately) six blocks on Cascade Avenue, extending from the College reservation northward.
It was undoubtedly the expectation of the founders of the town that in due course of time all the resident portions of the avenues and wider streets should be parked. We have faith to believe that this good work, fairly begun by ourselves will be fully carried out and improved upon by our successors. Not only would the "dust nuisance" be much abated thereby, but the streets would be greatly improved and beautified.
The Boulevard to Manitou is an instance of a good work fairly projected and partially completed, but which will need the fostering care of later generations. Thus, shrubs and grass should be judiciously introduced along its entire course, at every available point. It may be presumed that this will be done, and that the roadway will also be correspondingly improved.
The Greater Colorado Springs will, in my estimation, include Colorado City, Manitou, Broadmoor, Roswell and other suburbs. When that shall be done, the people may be ready for and able to constitute a metropolitan park system far surpassing my present anticipations.

Beekeepers around Cumberland have come together to present the idea of Cumberland, Maryland joining the ranks of the Free State's Bee Cities, Bee Counties and Bee Campuses. On May 3, Ben Cooper presented the idea to the mayor and city leaders of Cumberland, and received an encouraging response. Cumberland is already an official Tree City, and is home to a rich natural setting including the North Branch of the Potomac, creeks and mountains both within the city limits and surrounding them.
The Bee City Program in Cumberland seeks to "Think Globally and Act Locally" by providing native plants for native pollinators, providing native nesting sites, and reducing the use of pesticides. The mission: make the city a better place for pollinators.
Cumberland's mayor, Ray Morriss, said he’s interested in Cumberland becoming an official Bee City.
“It sounds good. Anything that you can do to help the environment ...And it sort of fits out here where we are,” Morriss said. “Allegany County makes it a great location to do something like this.” He also pointed out the city's longterm involvement in nature and the outdoors. Next steps in the process involve connecting the beekeepers with the relevant city staff to learn more.
To become a bee city, commitments like these are developed and laid out in a resolution that is adopted by the city council. In Cumberland, these efforts will include both city staff and organizations including Let’s Beautify Cumberland, Allegheny Mountain Beekeepers Association, Cumberland Flower Club, Master Gardeners, Student groups from local schools and colleges, and Scouting groups.
How will Cumberland become a Bee City USA? What is required?
- Establishing a standing committee to oversee and advocate for pollinators. Membership would include city staff, organizational representative, and interested volunteers.
- Committee should be managed by a certified city affiliate or non-profit 501c3 organization and have regularly scheduled meetings that would be open to the public.
- Create and establish pollinator habitat on public and private land within the city of Cumberland by increasing the abundance of native plants and nesting sites.
- Reduce the use of pesticides and herbicides.
- Incorporate pollinator-friendly best management practices into city plans and policies.
- Host Pollinator awareness events such as Let's Beautify Cumberland, Native Plant Sales, Heritage Days, etc.
- Publicly acknowledge Bee City USA with signage and an online presence .
- Pay an initial application fee and annual renewal. The fee is based on the city’s population. If Cumberland is roughly 20,000, the fee would be $200.
The group is already brainstorming projects for Bee City Cumberland, including a Flood Control Structure right-of-way or "No Mow May."

In the hustle and bustle of modern life, finding a haven of tranquility is more important than ever. Your backyard can be that sanctuary, a personal retreat to unwind and reconnect with nature. The essence of a Zen garden lies in its simplicity and harmony, offering a peaceful escape from the chaos of daily life. This peaceful oasis can be achieved with a thoughtful selection of plants, each contributing to the overall serenity. Imagine stepping into your garden and being greeted by the gentle swaying of leaves and the soft harmony of nature. A Zen garden is not just a space; it’s a journey towards tranquility, a personal alcove where every worry melts away.
Zen gardens are rooted in simplicity, naturalness, and austerity. They are not just gardens; they are a form of art that brings balance and serenity. The key is in understanding that every element has a purpose, creating a space that isn’t just visually pleasing but also spiritually soothing. In a Zen garden, each stone, water feature, and plant is carefully chosen and placed with intention. The goal is to create a minimalist landscape that captures the natural beauty and tranquility of nature. The balance of these elements symbolizes harmony and invites contemplation. In cultivating a Zen garden, you are not just planting; you are creating a sanctuary for the soul.

Bamboo represents strength and can teach us about resilience and standing tall through life’s challenges. It grows quickly, reminding us of life’s constant evolution. Bamboo’s slender form and green hue add a vertical dimension to the garden, creating an elegant and peaceful ambiance. Care for bamboo involves regular watering and pruning, ensuring it doesn’t overrun other serene elements in your garden.

Cannabis, often associated with relaxation, can be a unique addition to your Zen garden. It’s important, though, to first check your local laws regarding its cultivation. Including cannabis in your Zen garden can be a nod to its medicinal and therapeutic uses. This plant requires attention and care, making its cultivation a mindful practice. When placed thoughtfully, cannabis can complement other plants, creating a diverse and harmonious space. Remember, the goal is to create a balanced and serene environment, and each plant, including cannabis, plays a role in this.
Auto-flowering marijuana seeds are ideal for beginners. These plants are hardy and less demanding, perfect for those who want to cultivate serenity without the fuss. Auto-flowering plants typically require less maintenance and are more resilient to environmental changes. This characteristic makes them suitable for gardeners who wish to focus more on the spiritual aspects of gardening. They can adapt to various light conditions, reducing the need for strict light management. The smaller size of auto-flowering plants makes them a discreet addition to your Zen garden. They mature quickly, allowing for a quicker harvest and the opportunity to reflect on the cycle of growth and renewal. Auto-flowering cannabis plants offer a practical and straightforward way to incorporate this unique plant into your garden.
Cannabis plants can blend seamlessly with other Zen elements. Their distinctive leaf shape can add a unique visual element to your serene space. The key is to integrate them in a way that maintains the balance and aesthetics of your garden. Consider placing cannabis plants near elements like rocks or water features to create a harmonious look. They can be grown in containers or planted directly into the ground, depending on your garden’s design. The height and structure of cannabis plants can provide a contrast to lower-lying plants like moss and ferns. Use cannabis plants to create a focal point or to add depth to your garden’s layout. Remember, the goal is not just to grow a plant but to weave it into the tapestry of your Zen garden.
Plan your layout with simplicity in mind. Choose accessories that complement the natural environment. Pathways should encourage a peaceful walk, meandering gently through the garden. The design of a Zen garden is as much about the spaces as it is about the elements within. Use natural materials like stone and wood to maintain an organic feel. Water features should be simple and unobtrusive, enhancing the sense of tranquility. Create areas for sitting and reflection, inviting you to spend time in your garden. Consider the views from different angles and create vistas that encourage contemplation. Balance is key, so ensure that no single element dominates the garden. The garden should evolve naturally over time, reflecting the ongoing journey of self-discovery and inner peace.
Regular tending of your garden is not just about maintenance; it’s a meditation practice. Embrace this routine as part of your journey to inner peace. Gardening tasks like pruning, weeding, and watering can be therapeutic. They offer a chance to slow down and connect with nature. Pay attention to the needs of each plant, and they will thrive under your care. Regular maintenance also keeps your garden looking its best. Over time, you’ll develop a deeper understanding of your garden and its inhabitants. Your Zen garden is a living, breathing space that changes with the seasons. Embrace these changes as part of its natural beauty.
In conclusion, creating a Zen garden in your backyard is more than just landscaping; it’s a deeply personal journey toward tranquility and balance. Each element, from the soothing sway of bamboo to the reflective beauty of water lilies, plays a significant role in crafting a serene oasis. Even unconventional plants like cannabis, when integrated responsibly, contribute to the garden’s harmony and purpose. Embracing the principles of simplicity, naturalness, and mindfulness, a Zen garden becomes a sanctuary for both the mind and soul. As you cultivate and maintain this space, it evolves into a living representation of inner peace and resilience, offering a unique and restorative experience with every visit.
