Jim or Trent Shreckhise will schedule a convenient time for a 1-2 hour on-site visit to your property. During this visit, they will talk with you and walk around your property. They love to get to know you and to hear your thoughts, ideas, dreams, and concerns.
Step 3: Custom Landscape Design
During this stage, Jim and Trent create and illustrate a proposal for your new custom landscape design. Your design outlines may be subject to small changes at your request. The proposal shows the number of plants, their price, and their location in the plan deign. It gives you an overall picture of the design and installation plan.
Step 4: Nursery Visit
Shreckhise Landscape & Design maintains a large inventory of high quality, unusual plant material in larger but practical sizes. During the nursery visit, you walk the nursery with Jim or Trent to review the plants featured in the design. The nursery is stocked with common, unusual and native plants that we feel comfortable recommending in the Valley’s climate. Jim and Trent always provide practical plant recommendations from both an economic and stylistic point of view.
Step 5: Installation
On the morning of your scheduled installation, Jim and Trent personally select the plant material from our 7-acre nursery. This dynamic process involves last minute customizations and requires an extra level of expertise. Landscape installation goes far beyond choosing and placing your plants. We attend to grading and amending the soil, addressing problem areas, and making on-the-spot decisions for ideal plant placement. Our trained and experienced installation team takes extra precautions to ensure that our equipment does not disrupt your property and existing landscape.
After Installation: Maintenance & Follow Up
If a client encounters a problem or concern with something installed by Shreckhise Landscape & Design, we respond quickly to resolve the issue. We want to make sure our landscaping installation meets your expectations. We also offer annual maintenance services, for previous customers and tips on how to properly take care of a new landscape.

Discover how we redesigned Indigo Landscape Architects’ website, keeping the design clean, and making it easy to use on mobile.
Indigo Landscape Architects needed a fresh take on their website and had some strong ideas about keeping the layout simple, clutter-free and drawing inspiration from the straight lines used in their logo.
With simplicity being at the forefront of our minds, we proposed a clean, minimal homepage design with some well thought out margins and spacing to give the site a lovely professional feel.
We made it easy to browse Indigo’s wide range of work in a projects section broken down into industries
Seeing examples of completed past projects was really important, so we created a case study template to provide Indigo with a way of discussing the intricacies of each project.
Indigo Architects new website is fully content managed, meaning they can add new projects, services and news with speed and ease. This new website has given Indigo everything they need to manage their own web presence.

A Presentation by Shelkie Tao
More than 50% of residential water usage is consumed outdoors. To achieve the 25% water reduction target mandated by Governor Jerry Brown and 30% by Santa Clara Valley Water District, letting the green go brown is one of the quickest ways to do so. However, the new yard does not need to be brown; a garden full of water efficient plants can be as beautiful and enjoyable as a green lawn.
Come to this week’s meeting to hear about the current status of the drought, the value of a water efficient garden, rebate programs for converting a lawn to a garden, and see photos of some beautiful water efficient gardens from around the SF Bay Area.
Thursday Morning Meeting, February 18, 2016 8:00am - 9:30am

If you’ve been doing some stuff in your yard and you’re about to finish it, you probably are now thinking about what hardscape features to incorporate. At this very instance, you’re overwhelmed with so many options and you even are confused as to what to incorporate considering that any addition will give an immediate aesthetic impact. Obviously, you can’t fit everything, including water features, decks, fire pits, and pathways. Every single time you consider those options, it feels like you’re going nowhere and making a decision is becoming harder each day.
But the truth is, you really don’t have to get overly stressed by it. For any kind of hardscape design project, the best course of action is to hire a professional hardscape design company. If you’re not sold with that idea, take a good look at the reasons why you should do so:
1 – Hiring professionals means getting professional results.
The truth is no one is really stopping or preventing you from Hardscaping Providence features on your property since you have the freedom to do so, considering that it’s your private property. However, the one thing you don’t want to end up with is being utterly disappointed with the results. It’s true that any homeowner is capable of adding some minor stuff in the yard, but when you’re already contemplating on things like the addition of a pool or deck, it’s a type of job that only a professional can take care of.
2 – Professional hardscape design companies have a wide range of design ideas.
But don’t get the impression that they only are the ones who have the right to come up with the New Masonry Construction Providence design. What we’re trying to imply is that if you hire professionals, you have a bunch of guys who can evaluate your design ideas, improve it, and make sure it comes into fruition. Since you expect hardscape design pros to have been doing this type of work for so many years, it only means one thing: they know what they’re doing and they’re your best chance of making your design idea become reality. Even if you really believe in your own abilities and confidence, it can’t be denied that unlike them, you’re not a pro.
3 – Hire professionals and you will end up saving money.
Every homeowner knows for a fact that the project of redesigning the yard comes with it some huge expense. If you’re committed to improving how your yard looks and functions, you must be totally prepared to spend cash. Now the plan to do the project on your own might be based on the notion that you can save money by not hiring contractors. However, once you make costly mistakes and errors along the way, you just end up hiring them anyway, which means you’re back to square one and you literally threw money away through that failure. On the other hand, the work of a professional is pretty much guaranteed, which means the money you spent paying them is all worth it.


Aside from giving me a refuge from my office, my back garden now adds value to my home for when I eventually sell it. This was a big project and can’t be taken on immediately before a house hits the market, but I share these before and after shots, to inspire you with the difference that can be made to even a modestly-sized yard.
Besides, many of my subscribers have asking to see the before and after shots since I first wrote about the transformation last year.
|Hiding the view of the neighbor’s garage and the ugly fence between us was one of my goals. This is primarily a shade garden so visual interest was created by choosing plants with different leaf shapes and colors. I was not able to have many flowers, which would have been my preference.
A water feature provides a focal point and attracts birds. Their singing and the sound of the flowing water disguise neighbor and traffic noise. As the new trees and plants fill in, the garden will appear even more secluded. This “fountain” was created by drilling a large hole in a boulder and setting it in a deep container that is buried under the ground. A pump allows the same water to re-circulate.

OSI Discovery Map
Bounded by the Owenavorragh River on the north side and the canal on the seaward side to the east, Courtown Woodland dates back to pre-Famine times. At 25 hectares, it was once home to oak and ash trees. Acquired by the State in the late 1950’s it was planted with commercial timber. The mixed conifers – broadleaf plantings were largely of spruce with some ash although small stands of oak remain together with avenues of chestnut and lime trees.
The canal was constructed under a Famine relief scheme in 1847 and, as you choose your walk along the Lime Walk, Chestnut Walk or Broad Walk, you are walking in the shoes of previous Lords of Courtown and their visitors. Keep an eye out for remaining trees from the fifth Earl’s conifer collection, including Californian Redwood, Swamp Cypress, Japanese Cedar, Cedar of Lebanon and a number of pine, yew and True Cypresses. You will also notice common oak, ash, sycamore whilst, unfortunately, English Elm dating from the 1840s have mostly succumbed to Dutch Elm disease and are now suckering remnants of once, fine, pre-Famine trees.
A beautiful woodland area offering a cool green respite from the sunshine and sea in Courtown, these walks, with a tree lined avenue, offer a glimpse of the past and a reprieve from today’s busy schedule.
- The 2.5m high High Cross of Kilbride, the sole reminder of an early Christian church in the area
- Ballinatray Bridge, once amongst the tallest viaducts in Ireland
- A majestic Cedar of Lebanon on the river bank viewed from the Top Walk
- A yew tree planted in the 1870s, felled many years ago, continues to grow adjacent to the River Walk
- Late Spring’s spectacular white carpet of wild garlic blossom covering the woodland floor, followed closely by a delicate show of bluebells

A project by architect Stefano Boeri with engineering by Arup, the Bosco Verticale building has become a symbol of the new Milan
Bosco Verticale is a new symbol of sustainable, ecological architecture, winner of the 1st prize at the 2014 International Highrise Awards, reinforcing the prestige of Stefano Boeri and of Italian architecture all over the world. What is unusual about the complex is the presence of more than two thousand trees and shrubs planted right on its walls. In this ambitious metropolitan reforestation project, vertical densification of greenery aims to increase the biodiversity of plant and animal species in the city of Milan, reduce urban sprawl and contribute to mitigation of the microclimate.
Construction of the containers for the plants and the big window frames required use of particularly high-performing anchorage systems. AdermaLocatelli supplied ZH with GP54/33 anchor channels. GP54/33 anchor channels had just received ETA12/0433 certification to European standards.


At Hornby Garden Designs we have the gardening consultants needed in order for us to deliver, against any project, of any size, quickly and easily. From design through to construction, planting through to landscaping, our consultants approach every commission with years of experience behind them, which means we get it right first time, every time. And because we can handle every stage of your gardening project, you have the reassurance of knowing there is consistency in our delivery.
This high level of service also means that we are also incredibly particular about the plants that we source. For this reason all the plants that we obtain come from specialist nurseries. An approach that others may seem as being overly cautious, but one that ensures that when we put a plant into the ground, it’s strong and healthy – and should remain that way.
Sourcing from specialist nurseries also enables us to specify plants that not only meet our customers’ expectations, but also add important design details around benches, trellises, water features and plant containers.
Our fastidious attention to detail is also why we also pay close attention to outside lighting. Lighting can often be the finishing touch to a garden design, but it’s also the one area that others ignore. Depending on the scale of the project, we can provide lighting plans ourselves, or if you have exact requirements, we can work with specialist lighting designers to achieve the result you’re after.
Our approach to garden design and our insistence on perfection is why since being established in 2009, our business has bloomed and we have designed and created gardens, and landscapes in Shropshire and throughout the UK. We are also proud to say we have prospered on word-of-mouth alone.

The best way to keep your garden and its plants healthy is through proper garden care. You should also spend your time taking care of the plants. In other words, you should do the following:
Water and fertilizer: Watering and fertilizing the plants are the most important activities that will be performed by you. You should understand that watering will be performed when you give the plant’s water every day. Fertilizing will be done when you apply manure or compost to the plants. In addition, you can use a fertilizer that is already mixed with other substances that will act as the food source for the plants.
During the winter, you can plant different kinds of trees or shrubs that will help you achieve the healthy growth of the plants. For instance, a tree that will grow in less than 6 feet is good for using winter.
Build soil: The main purpose of gardening is to help you build soil. Building soil is important because this will help to get rid of weeds or insects that can be very harmful to the plants and their health.
On the other hand, building soil is not something that you can just do all by yourself. You will need to hire a professional landscaper. Nowadays, there are a lot of companies that offer this service. However, you will need to choose the company carefully so that you will get the best services.
The next activities that you can engage in garden care include mulching. Mulching is a good practice because it will help you prevent unwanted insects from entering the plants and will prevent the diseases from spreading in the plants.
Children: Do not ignore the children in your family. They play an important role in the development of the plants. Therefore, you should make sure that the children have been given education about gardening and the best practices in managing the garden.
Other activities that you can perform in order to improve your garden is watering, mulching, and fertilizer, as well as garden management, and water management. You can ask for advice from the professionals and read a book or two on garden care.
Landscaping: Landscaping will help you to make the garden look nice. The garden design should be comfortable and should be easy to navigate. Also, it should be beautiful.
There are other areas of gardening that you can also enjoy. All you need to do is choose the right one and invest time and effort in the garden.
Many people love to have new plantings. If you want to create your own garden, then you can start with plants that grow in the ground, such as sedums, dahlias, grasses, flowers, and herbs.

I love my sweet little courtyard that you have to enter to get to my front door. When we originally had the hardscape done in the front yard, I was very specific in wanting an enclosed courtyard to our Spanish style home. I wanted people to walk through a gate and into a garden to be invited into our home. It’s always been one of my favorite spots in our home. I’m looking to do a little mini-makeover this Spring for this area so I’m collecting some inspiration.
Here’s some photos that should spark my imagination and get those creative juices flowing…
To my surprise these photos are pointing towards the fact that what I really want is a secret garden. I really am drawn to beautiful, lush gardens with lots of greenery and flowers everywhere, but I also know the amount of upkeep it takes to make a garden look like it didn’t take much upkeep. I’m also realizing that I am still in love with Spanish architecture and I think it might be time to get rid of some of my large urn planters and go back to the clay ones. Who would have thunk. I thought I was going to go a totally different direction. That’s the best part about collecting inspiration photos, you might realize that your heart was going in a completely different direction than your head.
I guess we’ll just have to see with this one.


The Deschutes River goes through the park, which is the section called Mirror Pond. There are majestic ponderosa pines and hardwood trees and is beautifully landscaped. I would love to own one of the houses in this area especially those that are right on the river.
We continued our walk into historic Downtown Bend. They are lots of people walking around, checking out the different shops and restaurants on its streets, one of which faces the Park. We were thinking of kayaking this area on Sunday. We could kayak from the Park. We decided to look at River Bend Park and a couple of other areas for put ins.

The 4,200-foot Orono Bog Boardwalk opened in June 2003. It is easily accessed via Bangor City Forest and is wheelchair accessible. Educational guided walks are offered through this outstanding example of a raised peat bog with various habitat types. It is a key parcel in the Caribou Bog Penjajawoc Conservation Project. The area was designated as a National Natural Landmark by the National Park Service in 1974. The area was envisioned and created by Ronald B. Davis in 2001. It was built in a partnership among the OLT, UMaine’s College of Natural Sciences, and the City of Bangor. The original wooden boardwalk has been completely rebuilt with composite materials – making a much more durable and wheelchair accessible surface. This work was completed in 2019.

Shortly before the Capital City Day, the Head of State has taken a traditional trip around the green belt of Astana and got acquainted with the course of its development.
Nursultan Nazarbayev together with the representatives of Zhasyl El youth squad took part in tree planting in the green zone of the capital and release of 150 pheasants into the natural environment.
Talking to the youth, the President of Kazakhstan recalled that the "green belt" was created as a natural barrier to protect the capital from dusty winds and snowstorms.
- The forest is a real natural wealth and the most important mechanism for maintaining a favourable living environment. It revitalizes the urban air, making it cleaner and fresh, and the climate is softer, Nursultan Nazarbayev said.
In addition, the Head of State held a meeting on the status and further development of Astana’s green belt.
Adilbek Dzhaksybekov, head of the Presidential Administration, Umirzak Shukeyev, Deputy Prime Minister - Minister of Agriculture, Asset Issekeshev, akim of Astana and Malik Murzalin, akim of Akmola region, have attended that meeting.
The President of Kazakhstan stressed that for 20 years a unique ecosystem has been formed around Astana, with harmoniously combined natural and urban landscapes.
- Green space inside the capital makes an area of almost 15 thousand hectares. It is important, according to the example of the capital, to step up the pace of planted wood throughout Kazakhstan, the Head of State said.
Nursultan Nazarbayev also noted that extensive work on combining the forests of green space and Shchuchinsk-Borovoye resort zone will keep on in the coming years. In particular, more than one thousand hectares of forest are to be planted along the routes of Astana-Karaganda and Astana-Shortandy.
During the meeting, Vice Minister of Agriculture Erlan Nysanbayev has reported to Nursultan Nazarbayev that since 1997 the total area of forest plantations has exceeded 83 thousand hectares, and this year it is about 5.5 thousand hectares.
In turn, Abay Sagitov, Director of Research Institute for Plant Protection and Quarantine, spoke about the measures taken to protect the forest from pests and increase the survival of forest plantations.
Following the meeting, the Head of State gave a number of specific instructions to the Ministry of Agriculture, Akimats of Astana and Akmola region on the green zone’s further development and the use of forest plantations for organizing recreation places for residents and guests of the capital city.


Talking of finishing things, I did a bit of stitching on the embellished piece I posted about last week. Initially I thought it looked vaguely like a landscape but with the addition of some stitching I think it looks more like a rockface. There was no real planning in the design, only playing, but I think it could have potential to be developed into something a bit more substantial. I quite like the subtlety of the reverse side too. Not sure which I prefer.

Limestone occurs commonly in nature, and is a hard and durable choice for a wide variety of projects. Neutral colors like cream, beige, gold, blue gray, and mushroom predominate the palette available in limestone. Formed when calcium based granular sediment and organic material deposits compact over time, limestone is the most homogenous type of natural stone. Limestone is extremely long-lasting and holds up well to exposure to the elements. Subtle shade variation, pencil thin veining and the inclusion of the occasional shell fossil make limestone a sophisticated choice.
Because limestone is readily available, it is relatively easy to cut into blocks and shape into more elaborate carvings. It has been a prized building material for many centuries. It was even the stone of choice for the Great Pyramid in Giza, one of the Seven Wonders of the World.
Limestone is a staple of historic European design, used in manor houses, cathedrals, and castles dotting the landscape of Europe. In addition to its historical appeal, limestone appeals to contemporary tastes as well, and has been featured on the exterior of the new Yankee Stadium. A floor of large format, understated limestone tiles can create a smooth sleek minimalist look in a contemporary setting.
Available in slab, tile, and trim, limestone is primarily seen in a honed or polished finish.

The lovely owner of this beautiful garden has the gift of making absolutely anything into a picture of beauty. She has left no stone unturned in every inch of this outdoor space. From the teensy native violets that one walks upon, to the little curtain that separates a simple side passage of a home, there is beauty everywhere. Box hedge forms the formal element of the space and pretty topiaries in moss covered terracotta pots add subtle interest to the eye. Some white wicker garden chairs and antique lace cushions to cosy up in complete the look.
This beautiful corner of the world is one of my very favourite places to visit.


A medium length trail through a varied landscape. The loop hike (6 miles?) at Washington State Park, and the varied terrain it passes through, is certainly worth the drive. It's a good plae to think about the history and development of Missouri's state parks, and the trail offers a number of pleasant surprises.
The park is off MO 21, along the Big River, and a lot closer now that 21 is four-lane to Hillsboro:
The park web site has the usual information.
The park was developed by the CCC. Their handiwork is all over the park. Particularly evocative is the remains of their barracks, now being reclaimed by the forest:
And they knew how to frame a scene:

- linear plantations (hedges, trees, woodlands and windbreaks);
- planting of one or more species of native arboreal and shrubby plants with a medium-long cycle, of forest and/or agro-forestry interest, cultivated in a sparse order or with regular, low-density planting patterns for the creation of “agro-forestry systems"; in which forest arboriculture is associated with agriculture on the same short area.

Imagine a swimming pool, the edge of which goes directly into the ocean or merges with the horizon, creating the illusion of infinity. Their boundaries artfully blend into the environment and the natural landscape, literally dissolving in space and hitting the imagination.
The idea of these pools originated in France – they were used in the construction of the famous Versailles fountains. Today only the most expensive resorts and hotels in the world can boast of an infinite pool, as its construction is a quite expensive pleasure. But perhaps you should give everything to swim in this pool at least once in your life.

High rise condominiums are also in development along Sheppard Avenue.


With construction underway for the Waller Creek tunnel, the conservancy that is responsible for the surface level improvements around Waller Creek is ready for the public to meet the four finalist working on this project. Tonight at Blanton Auditorium, the Waller Creek Conservancy is hosting Meet Your Designers where the public can come in to meet the finalist, hear their design philosophies, and see the past work each designer has done.
Waller Creek was part of the city’s original plan. When platting the city, Evan Waller intended for the capitol to sit at the center of Shoal Creek and Waller Creek. He felt Waller Creek was one of the key defining features of Austin. The creek has eroded over the years, and the City of Austin and Waller Creek Conservancy are working to make it one of the defining features for the city once again. Covering roughly 11% of the downtown Austin, the tunnel that is being built to control flooding in Waller Creek area will free approximately 20 city blocks once it is completed. The conservancy is bringing in world renowned designers to take the flood plain and make a public amenity – a livable, workable, vibrant area that will become an important part of the Central Business District.
The four finalist you will be able to meet tonight at Blanton are:

This is our new back garden:
It’s a bit of a dump, isn’t it? The builders have trodden a lot of the grass into the soil, which seems to be a heavy clay, heavily compacted, very muddy. If you’ve seen my previous gardening posts, (e.g. Garden, from 2012) you’ll see that this new garden is a fraction of the size of the old one, and really quite boring.
It’s actually quite exciting. It’s like a blank sheet of paper. I have ideas and dreams, and because it’s much smaller, I might manage to realise them here. I’m thinking … wildflowers and veggies … a small pond for amphibians and maybe fish (maybe it will help drain the soil?) … an apple tree trained up the south-facing fence … a hedge of hawthorn, hazel & maybe holly to mask the compost bins and feed the birds … the possibilities are endless in a blank sheet garden.
Except it’s not exactly blank. That’s some sort of oak tree, there at the back, and something’s been living in that compost bin. There’s a laurel bush and some sort of evergreen, broad-leafed tree and a magnificent yucca-type thing, and who knows what’s dormant in the soil, waiting for spring, amongst all the chilled invertebrates? I’m not too hopeful about garden birds, being about 100 yards from the sea, but I’ve already seen a robin and some blackbirds. It’s not blank – it’s full of life. And, just like the old garden, or any piece of land I might inhabit, it’s not mine.

Burden visited the old railway tracks that were slated for imminent demolition and immediately fell in love with the wild floating oasis, which had become overgrown with vegetation during the decades of abandonment. As soon as she was appointed City Planning Commissioner, making it a public park for everyone to enjoy became her priority.
But while Burden saw what could be the defining feature of the neighborhood, maybe even the greatest public space in the world, most people saw only an old eyesore of urban infrastructure that was hindering the economic development of the area. Thus began an arduous process of gaining public approval, juggling the interests of developers and other government agencies, reworking complex zoning restrictions, and funding a project no one would be able to see from ground-level.
While the third and final phase has yet to open the High Line has already triggered over $2B worth of new development in the surrounding neighborhoods, and become the top international attraction Burden had a feeling it would be. It’s a vision many other cities are now hoping to recreate, but for us there will be only one High Line.

One Billion Trees
Applications for One Billion Trees funding has closed as at 26th March 2021. IKHMG does have other avenues available with support from Te Uru Rakau for funding opportunities. Please complete the form below and someone will be in touch.
The goal is to double the current planting rate to reach one billion trees planted by 2028.
The programme has the potential to deliver huge benefits for our environment, our people, our communities, and our economy.
The focus is on making it easier to plant the right tree, in the right place, for the right purpose.
We want to see trees integrated into the landscape to complement and diversify our existing land uses, rather than see large-scale land conversion to forestry. We want to see innovative ideas, research, and sector development that will improve the way we plant and grow trees.
The tree planting mission
To transform New Zealand's forests in a way that improves our environment, social outcomes for our people, and economic performance in our regions.
We'll do this by:
protecting and improving our soil, water quality, and other natural resources
helping New Zealand meet its international climate change commitments
increasing biodiversity and enhancing natural landscapes
providing opportunities for Māori to maximise the potential of their land and resources
providing employment and training opportunities
building sustainable regional economic growth
supporting tourism and infrastructure development. (1)
IKHMG became one of 2 afforestation hubs in the New Zealand. This enables us to act as Agents for Te Uru Rakau to apply for funding on behalf of Landowners.
There's $240 million in funding available from the One Billion Trees Fund for landowners, organisations, and community groups to plant trees and improve the way we grow and plant trees.

Sheer Descent Waterfalls
Sheer Descent waterfalls produce a clear arc of water, projecting away from the pond wall. The flow can be adjusted to create a range of effects from an almost silent, glass like sheet of water to a rushing mountain spring waterfall.
Sheer Descent Waterfalls can produce a wide range of water effects and can easily be adjusted to suit any mood or environment. We have them available in lengths from twelve inches to twenty-four inches.
The water fills up from below and passes around baffels which ensure the water pours over the lip evenly. Must be installed level for the waterfall to be even.


Commissioned by the Trustees of the Hospital of St. Cross
and Almshouses of Noble Poverty, Winchester
Charles was commissioned to design and make a gate for the Master’s Garden. A variety of designs, in keeping with the historic surroundings,
were submitted to the Trustees and ‘Brothers’ for approval.
Furthermore the Master’s Garden contains a large carp lake from which
otters were systematically removing the fish. Part of the brief was to make
the gate otter-proof.
Made in mild steel, the curving bars represent moving water of the lake enhanced by a stainless steel Cross of Jerusalem.
Designed, made and installed by Charles Normandale

Fall Preparations for the Yard
One who has a lovely yard, one that is full of the most beautiful shrubs and trees, might love spending time in it, feeling that it certainly is the best part of the property. However, taking care of a garden can oftentimes be tough, and require skill and knowledge on how to do it in the best way. If fall is coming, for instance, you need to take special care of your garden, as this season, although it certainly is very beautiful, can also be very complex. Here, then, are some things that everyone who owns a yard should do if it is the last days of summer, and he or she is getting ready for the fall season.
If one has a yard that he or she wishes to prepare for the fall, one thing that he or she should do is to give the plants a good trimming. During the summer, the weather is very warm and good, and often, this means that plants grow much more than they do during the colder parts of the year. In order to keep their gardens looking neat and pretty for the lovely fall weather, then, it is a great idea to go around and give everything a healthy trim.
If you want to enter the fall season with a garden that you can sit in and just enjoy, another thing that you can do is to ensure that all of its surroundings are as clean as they can be. If one notices that there are a lot of stains on the garden wall, for instance, he or she can get them removed through pressure washing, a highly powerful type of washing which can get rid of the most difficult of stains. One will be surprised to see how much difference the removal of stains on garden walls and the exterior of the house can make – this difference will really transform the yard greatly.
Last but not least, people who want to improve their yards by the next year should make sure that they do not delay with the plans and the dreams they hope to achieve. Once fall comes, you can even choose the shrubs you want to add, and plant their roots into your soil – once spring comes, you will be amazed to see how lovely everything is, and how your garden is running riotously with color.

The last time Indy Greenways updated its master plan was in 2003. Much has changed since then. You can be part of the process by participating in public meetings, visiting the project office and taking the Indy Greenways Master Plan Survey.
Indy Parks will be conducting a series of public meetings and workshops for the Greenways Master Plan in late February and early March. There will be one meeting in each township with the purpose of giving residents an opportunity to discuss trail and greenway development opportunities in their specific township. Indy Greenways has developed a new online survey to provide more opportunities for public input on the Greenways Master Plan.
The survey includes questions concerning the different greenway segments, issues affecting the greenways, and questions about how and where to develop the next trails in the system. The survey is available at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/IndyGreenwaysSurvey
Please take a few minutes to give your thoughts!

Lately, the idea of having ponds at home has become popular to show off a modern and elegant garden. In fact, the garden decoration is more attractive when you add a space for fish and aquatic plants. A pond allows you to include more elements of nature and will help you create a harmonious and natural environment.
Before installing the pond, you should consider that it receives direct sunlight, at least 4 hours a day. In this way, you can keep the aquatic vegetation of the pond alive. If you decide to keep fish, you should also make sure you have a fountain that keeps the water moving so that it becomes oxygenated.
Depending on the vegetation, your pond can be made of water flowers or algae. If you take into account their construction, they can be made of concrete, canvas or prefabricated with plastic.
The fish also add a certain flair to the pond. You can have the same species of fish such as carp or goldfish (also known as koi and goldfish), or have different species and give the design more color.
There are several styles and ways to have ponds at home. Go ahead and choose one!
1. A waterfall for your pond
Building ponds at home with a waterfall will make you feel closer to nature than you imagine. You can go to your garden and relax by hearing the soft sound of running water. This option looks great if you add fish or some pretty water flowers to the pond.
This design is suitable for large gardens where there is enough space to create a two-level pond. The water will run from the highest to the lowest level.
- In order for the water to circulate constantly, the system must have an internal water pump. Make sure to cover the hoses of the pumping system under the stones or between the plants.
- Creativity is essential for this design to stand out for its beauty. At the level of the waterfall, it is advisable to put stones to simulate the natural waterfalls of the rivers.
- To border the pond, you can use bricks or flat stones. If you add fish, remember that they must be at the lowest level of the pond.
2. Pond in the corner
A corner pond is the perfect solution if you don’t have a lot of space and you dream of having ponds at home. Enhance the decoration of your small garden by reserving a corner for fish and aquatic plants. A small well decorated corner pond will have nothing to envy to other ponds.
- Considering that the garden is small, it is important not to overload the decoration of the pond so as not to visually reduce the space.
- Decorations with stones in light tones are ideal in these cases. Likewise, low plants are also an option to border the pond without overloading it.
- If you are going to put fish, think about the size they will reach when they grow and choose the species that best suits the dimensions of the pond.
Every pond needs filter systems to keep the water clean and give the water movement. If you keep the water stagnant, the fish will die from lack of oxygen and the pond will quickly become dirty. Therefore, the installation of this system is always essential.
3. Pond of aquatic plants
Having ponds at home takes time and dedication. If you have little time for pond maintenance, this design is ideal for you. Luckily, an aquatic plant pond is fairly easy to set up and maintain.
- Build it in a circular shape and place it in a visible place for visitors. This type of pond looks great in front gardens, near the front door of your house. Also off to the side in your backyard.
- Create harmony between the plants in your garden and the aquatic plants in your pond without losing the opportunity to stand out. Add brightly colored aquatic flowers that contrast with the greenery of your garden lawn. Play with the depth and diversity between plants that grow underwater and those that live on the surface.
In this type of pond, the quality of the filter is essential. Make sure to install a good filter that keeps the water clean so that you can always appreciate the vegetation inside.
Tips to have ponds at home
Before putting fish in, measure the pH of your pond to make sure it is optimal for their survival. Consider that if you put fish, you will also create a sustainable way to control mosquitoes. The fish will eat the eggs of mosquitoes and other pests found in the pond.
Another aspect that you must take into account if you want to build a pond with fish and aquatic plants is that the plants are not poisonous to your fish. Likewise, if you combine fish of different species, you will have to find out if they can coexist in the same space without problems. You can consult this information with an expert in the store where you buy the plants and fish.
Periodically clean the pond of organic waste such as flowers and fallen leaves to avoid having to do maintenance as often. In addition to the filter, certain aquatic plants like hyacinths can help you keep the water clean. This plant facilitates the task of having ponds at home by eliminating the nutrients that contribute to the formation of algae.

Hillside Garden. Even dry hillsides can make beautiful rock gardens, with paths twisting and turning in a zig-zag to create a visual adventure from the top of the slope to the bottom. They can be terraced and threaded with streams to create waterfalls and planted with some of nature’s most beautiful plant forms. Bridges, benches and belvedere are some of the structural elements that can add interest to a hillside.
Once you have decided on an overall plan for landscaping the back yard, you may find the extra storage is needed. Having a garden cabin in the garden can be a beautiful accessory to add. It can give your garden a personality like nothing else. However, if you are not careful it can be very expensive. What is more, if you want your cabin to be very sturdy, durable, and easy to maintain, then it is best to go for the wood material like spruce, pine or cedar.

Have you ever noticed how few sitting places you find in private gardens? How seldom the versatility and importance of benches is considered? True gardeners, with their peerless taste, dexterity and inspired planting, never stop ... To sit is almost an offence, a sign of depravity and an outrage towards every felicitous refinement that has gone into making a garden. by Mirabel Osler

As the name suggests, Castle Rock Cobble is irregular in shape and size. The stone is graded to a 3"-6" bed depth and the stones average 6"-12" in size. 30-35 square feet of coverage, per ton, can be expected. Cobble lends itself to a rustic, old world look and is recommended tumbled to further achieve that appearance. Castle Rock Cobble is an ideal selection for fireplaces, chimneys, wood-burning ovens or as a wall veneer.
