A San Francisco Modern Contemporary Garden Design</h3>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Land & Garden's design services by Laura Clemons, was brought in to design a modern and contemporary garden design for a San Francisco customer's back yard space, behind their two story residence. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The customer was on a budget and wanted a solution that met their needs. So we came up with a design, materials list and plant list, which would allow them to build the garden slowly in project phases on their own working from our low cost design.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To initially give the customer ideas we created a design proposal document, full of images to make decisions from: images ranged from garden designs, outdoor rooms, lighting, to plants and structures. This gave the customer ideas as to what they were looking for in the redesign the back of their property, and also allowed them to make decisions as to finalizing a sketch and plan. We then did hand-drawn sketches -which took less billable time than our computer drawings; and provided a materials and plant list that would allow them to choose, budget and shop for what they wanted, when they were ready to install in phases (Lists provided below.)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The goal for the design was to generate an outdoor living space and gardening areas with long lines, walkways and privacy. We created a design with a rear deck for entertaining and barbequing with an arbor above, and off to the side, a cement water basin with an attractive and textural wood wall above it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The garden pathways are covered in decomposed granite and the garden areas full of plants ranging in height, texture and colors, limited to a palette of yellows, oranges, purples to blacks.</div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Dy4cJfU4vFc/U-vw3SD7_2I/AAAAAAAABQc/6Iox-oGI6DU/s1600/Trish.Landscape.Sketch.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Dy4cJfU4vFc/U-vw3SD7_2I/AAAAAAAABQc/6Iox-oGI6DU/s1600/Trish.Landscape.Sketch.jpg" height="640" width="494" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The design also incorporates 3 foot square, cement walking pads edged with black river rock; vine covered fencing on two sides with a third wall of rust colored corrugated galvanized metal panels hung horizontally; a large rectangle of sod grass next to a large rear deck for entertaining covered with a black structural arbor. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A rectangular large wall piece of textured wood slats adds dimension color and texture at the end of the deck and hangs on the galvanized fence wall. While colored landscape glass fills a cement water basin below it; as it's surrounded flax and ornamental grasses. The various garden areas are to be filled with textured and flowering plants, succulents, grasses and shrubs ranging in tones from yellow, oranges, purples and blacks. Enhanced with Italian cypress, a lemon tree and olive trees...all with pathways covered in decomposed granite. </div>
<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The following images are not ours but were the source of design direction and inspiration for our Design Proposal Document - Step 1.</span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
In this image, use of a cement rectangular water trough, the decomposed granite walkways, green covered walls contrasting with earthy rust colored horizontal lines of adjacent wall, all went into our design.<br />
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Love, love the rear hanging wood wall made from wood boards gives a modern and easy to build, wonderful focal point. Our version of a wood wall is hung off to the left side fenced wall, as we have an arbor proposed for the right side of the rear deck. The cement square pads leading to a rear step up deck also incorporated into our design.<br />
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6L7iXxdKcCo/U-vwfBcq7MI/AAAAAAAABPs/zSwFVLBZFUw/s1600/trishSFdesign.insp3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6L7iXxdKcCo/U-vwfBcq7MI/AAAAAAAABPs/zSwFVLBZFUw/s1600/trishSFdesign.insp3.jpg" height="320" width="319" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Use of cement low rectangular structure to hold water basin surrounded by black rivers stones incorporated into our proposal as well as the horizontal lines of the rear fence, and long decomposed granite walkways.<br />
<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-KH6RGpy1liI/U-vwj35EB9I/AAAAAAAABP0/S3HFjQ1xN-8/s1600/trishSFdesign.insp4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-KH6RGpy1liI/U-vwj35EB9I/AAAAAAAABP0/S3HFjQ1xN-8/s1600/trishSFdesign.insp4.jpg" height="400" width="266" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
We loved the side over-hanging, black painted wood arbor and vine covered walls to reveal a few of our design ideas using this image.<br />
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
In this picture the ideas we are presenting are the types of plants that add colors in tones of oranges, purples and blacks such as: Ipomoea batatas; Pennisetum ‘Jade Princess’; Sanguisorba tenuifolia; Sambucus nigra ‘Aurea’; Rhus typhina ‘Laciniata’; Acer triflorum; Aconitum carmichaelii; Pennisetum glaucum ‘Jester’; Persicaria amplexicaulis ‘Taurus’; Zinnia ‘Profusion Orange’; and Sanvitalia.<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
This image we found gives an idea to the use of succulents, great for California Bay Area gardens -such as the orange coral firesticks, which can provide year round texture and foliage color tones of yellows, oranges and purples.<br />
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
This image we found for the client, details the proposed black river rock stones to be used around edgings of pathways and decks in the design; and the galvanized panels hung horizontally would be extended in our design on the far left wall end to end, yet painted an earthy rust color.<br />
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EzEUv18IYAo/U-vwc9K2rtI/AAAAAAAABPc/gouuoB0ADGk/s1600/trishSFdesign.insp10.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EzEUv18IYAo/U-vwc9K2rtI/AAAAAAAABPc/gouuoB0ADGk/s1600/trishSFdesign.insp10.jpg" height="316" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Of course the design had to include a few of the beautiful Pride of Madiera Plants - great for coastal San Francisco gardens!<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Our design incorporates lighting, illuminating the garden at night for entertaining. We love the idea of lighting up one long wall: we propose adding tube lighting along the solid galvanized fenced wall we incorporate for one side of the garden. The other two garden walls would be covered with and planted for vines such as Jasminum polyanthemum (pink bud jasmine); Clematis armandii; Passiflora (Passion flower) and Bignonia (crossvine). The vine covered walls could have lower garden lights at ground level, lighting up into the vines. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">You can create beautiful and fun moss terrariums allowing your kids to appreciate nature while diving into a fun creative project they can make all on their own. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Let the kids proudly take on the responsibility of misting these adorable tabletop plant worlds.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />All you need is: one large or, up to three small-to-medium glass terrarium containers, clean planting soil, aquarium charcoal (carbon), one or more small live plants such as ferns or air plants, and lastly, the Moss Terrarium Kit from Land & Garden.</span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Next, once you find your glass terrarium containers and supplies, spread your items out on your dining table and let the kids begin thier projects!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />1. The Base Layer: spread a thin layer of pebbles or carbon layer base 1/4" to 1/2" thick. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
2. Soil Layer: Cover the base layer with 1 inch deep or more of organic planting soil. If you are planting small plants, make sure the soil layer is as deep as the root ball of the plant.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />3. Moss Layer: Design your terrain inside: add your plant(s), the various mosses, sheet mosses and accessories on top of the soil layer. Use a fork to move and place the moss around. A narrow paintbrush is great for swiping soil off the leaves of plants. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">5. Arrange: </span><span style="font-size: large;">Add small fun statues, toys, colored glass chunks or seashells add focal interest. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />4. Water: Water VERY lightly initially.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">5. Misting: Then mist regularly.<br /><br />Get more terrarium ideas on YouTube. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">WITH SPRING COMES THE BABY LAMBS AND COWS! </span></div>
<br />
It's spring in the pastures of Carson Valley, Nevada, and the baby sheep and cows are to be adored!<br />
<br />
In our journeys around the Carson Valley low lands, we took pictures in May and June of the sheep and cows grazing the pasture lands. The area is so green year round with incredibly clean air quality to boost. Enjoy our pictures and be sure to visit this region on the back side of Lake Tahoe, the eastern Sierras!<br />

<span style="color: #6fa8dc;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">“You expected to be sad in the fall. Part of you died each year when
the leaves fell from the trees and their branches were bare against the
wind and the cold, wintery light. But you knew there would always be the
spring, as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen.” </span></span></h3>

It is time for spring, or spring has said, my time has come. No matter what goes on in life, no matter how busy the world is, the blossoms appear again from the trees, the bulbs peek out their starting stalks, tiny bright green grass plumes emerge from the ground, and the air becomes filled with fragrance. Even as a snow shower continues to fall, spring fights for it's grand position.<br />

“When icicles hang by the wall, <br />
And Dick the shepherd blows his nail,<br />
And Tom bears logs into the hall, <br />
And milk comes frozen home in pail, <br />
When blood is nipp'd, and ways be foul,<br />
Then nightly sings the staring owl, <br />
To-whit! To-who!—a merry note, <br />
While greasy Joan doth keel the pot. <br />
<br />
When all aloud the wind doe blow,<br />
And coughing drowns the parson's saw, <br />
And birds sit brooding in the snow, <br />
And Marian's nose looks red and raw, <br />
When roasted crabs hiss in the bowl, <br />
Then nightly sings the staring owl,<br />
To-whit! To-who!—a merry note, <br />
While greasy Joan doth keel the pot.”

apricots, but just paint Spring. To paint willows, plums, peaches, or
apricots is to paint willows, plums, peaches, or apricots - it is not
yet painting Spring.”

“A Robin said: The Spring will never come,<br />
And I shall never care to build again.<br />
A Rosebush said: These frosts are wearisome,<br />
My sap will never stir for sun or rain.<br />
The half Moon said: These nights are fogged and slow,<br />
I neither care to wax nor care to wane.<br />
The Ocean said: I thirst from long ago,<br />
Because earth's rivers cannot fill the main. —<br />
When Springtime came, red Robin built a nest,<br />
And trilled a lover's song in sheer delight.<br />
Grey hoarfrost vanished, and the Rose with might<br />
Clothed her in leaves and buds of crimson core.<br />
The dim Moon brightened. Ocean sunned his crest,<br />
Dimpled his blue, yet thirsted evermore.”

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">The months between Christmas and spring stretch interminably for ardent gardeners, who grow restless for any sign of life in the landscape. While most plants lie in dormant slumber, the long, slender branches of witch hazel burst into bloom with ribbon-like petals of yellow, orange or red. The delicately fragrant flowers give renewed hope that spring is not far away.<br /><br />American witch hazel (Hamamelis virginiana) is known for its medicinal properties, the bark extract used as a time-honored remedy for a variety of skin and other bodily ailments. These east coast native shrubs or small trees are commonly found in wooded areas from Canada to Georgia. Clusters of citrus-scented petals appear in late fall before the leaves have dropped.<br /><br />Perhaps the greater therapeutic value of witch hazel is the balm that soothes the soul when their<b> </b>tasseled flowers unfurl at a time when little else is blooming.</span></span></span></b></span><br />

Images of Rodeo Drive or the Hollywood Sign are getting hazier by the
day, and the long-term drought across the Southwest is a culprit.<br />
<br />
As
a dry pattern prevails across all of California (and Nevada), rain refuses to fall
and snow cover in the higher elevations has been so thin that residents
are worried their <b>source of drinking water in the summer months will be
at risk</b>. When there's no precipitation to clear the air, a nasty haze
hovers in the valleys of southern California.<br />
<br />
"The West Coast has
been dominated by a persistent weather pattern since last year with the
jet stream staying far to the north, preventing moisture-laden Pacific
storms from affecting California," said weather.com meteorologist <a href="https://twitter.com/chrisdolcewx" target="_blank">Chris Dolce</a>.
"Unfortunately, it appears this pattern will persist through the end of
January with no significant precipitation in the forecast."<br />

This has led to officials <a href="http://www.latimes.com/science/la-me-winter-air-20140120,0,6110749.story#axzz2qylvJqTW" target="_blank">issuing additional no-burn alerts</a>, according to a <i>Los Angeles Times</i>
report.<br />
<br />
Residents are no longer allowed to burn wood in their
fireplaces, and outdoor burn bans were already in place due to the
threat of any spark causing a major wildfire.<br />
<br />
Still, clinics are treating more patients than normal who have breathing problems and other pollution-related ailments, the <i>Times</i> also reported.<br />
<br />
It's
more bad news in an area that already ranks lowest in air quality on a
near-annual basis. Los Angeles has topped a national list of cities with
the worst air pollution <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/health/2013/04/24/los-angeles-tops-dirty-air-list-for-13th-time-in-14-years/" target="_blank">in 13 of the last 14 years</a>, according to an ABCNews.com report.<br />
<br />
"If
the month concludes with no rain in Los Angeles, January 2014 would
join only four other Januarys in the last 100 years that no rain was
recorded in the city," said Dolce. "January is typically one of the two
wettest months of the year in Los Angeles."<br />
<br />
California
isn't the only state suffering: Areas all over the West are
experiencing air quality problems due to the lack of precipitation.
Northern Utah is also under a health alert, according to the Associated
Press, as officials have banned wood-burning and asked residents to
drive less.Land & Gardenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02833449893294424460noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-123465741874419648.post-53552252421924263972014-01-14T22:55:00.003-08:002014-01-15T10:49:57.404-08:00Faerieland, Moodscapes & Other Enchanting Photography from Ashley Lebedev<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The Enchanting Photography of Ashley Lebedev<b><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></b></h2>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Based in the creative city of Minneapolis, Minnesota, photographer Ashley Lebedev does amazing portraits, landscapes and images that derive from, or are inspired by nature caught in another time long ago. A Grimm Brother's fairy tale. </span><br />

Hosting the winter party is a great way to hold a community gathering
too. Just be sure to ask your guests to dress warm with extra layers,
hat, scarf and gloves to ensure comfort for several hours outside in a
wintry landscape.<br />
<br />
Your central guest element is a warm bonfire and ensuring you're adding wood to keep it burning for the duration of your event. Place chairs with pillows and blankets that guests can wrap them selves in at the fire.<br />
<br />
If
you've got a marquee, (synthetic or fabric cover supported by poles),
gazebo or covered outdoor kitchen, you'll have a covered area to place a
few tables to hold food and drink.<br />

Outdoor entertaining tables can be as easy as getting two hardware store
saw horses holding a plywood sheet hidden with a jazzy tablecloth. Add or hang torches, hurricane lamps and strings of lights to create a warm ambiance as the evening night settles in.<br />

<br />
For a touch of wintery decor, place antique sleds, skis or snowshoes around -they might even get used!<br />
<br />
Serve cold drinks in buckets filled with snow.<br />
<br />
Have warm drinks available at all times, such as Apple Cider or Hot Chocolate in coffee warmers and allow guests to add flavored marshmallows or alcohol if needed. Providing a hot cocoa bar with cocoas, toppers, whip cream and cookies makes an awesome area to converse and have fun mixing drinks at any age.<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
Gourmet dogs or sausages can be provided for guest to grill over the fire with buns to heat at the fire's edge. A tray of mustard's, sauces and relishes set out for guests to dress up their dogs or sausages is perfect.<br />
<br />
Provide food warmers or iron pots with easy to eat wintery food: fondues, chili; baked beans with crusty french bread covered with napkins in baskets. Pies of any kind are always a favorite wintery desert.<br />
<br />
And don't forget the s'mores tray, arranging grahams, various
marshmallows, and varied chocolates to let your guests toast over the
fire in celebration of winter.<br />

<br />
Take a day and connect with nature -disconnect from the TV, computer, couch or work and get outside in the winter garden. Even if the winds are blowing, if you dress warm enough and put clothes on that you don't mind getting dirty, you'll be glad you got outside and in the garden and connected -not with your peeps online but your plants outside. I know, because I did it today.<br />

coat, but I got out and gardened. I almost shed a few tears cleaning up
plants that appeared to have died from recent freezing single digit
temperatures; my dog noticed my sadness and came over to check on me.
Plants I've had for years in the high desert of Southern California that
survived winter low temps of 11 degrees; plants that I dug up from my
garden when I sold my house last spring carefully planting them into
containers; plants that I moved three times, at great expense, to
finally be with me in my new life in the Sierra Mountains region
surviving temps in the 20's on a daily basis; seemed to have died out
once we hit ten days of single digit temps. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I had left the dangling
plants for dead in those containers, so I could at least view them and
their tattered remains in memory of their brighter, beaming days. But
today, I pruned and cleaned them up, in a funeral goodbye. And it was
indeed sad as these were my "friends" for seasons in a place I was new
to and did not know many people. I know however, that Spring will
surprise me with life for an unknown amount of these plants. And I will
not know until then...</div>

Through my teens and twenties, I did garden design, pruning, clean up, and other services for garden owners in the Seattle area. I held jobs in the summers working for tree pruning companies or landscape nurseries and learned great tips from the various "master gardeners" I worked under.<br />
<br />
Eventually, I built up a client list in the Seattle area that included Mercer Island, various Seattle neighborhoods, and areas of the East Side. And through practice, I became quite good at mastering pruning of trees and shrubs.<br />
<br />
Winter is the best season for pruning plants, shrubs and trees. The lack of leaves on many wintered plants allows you to see the lines of the plant and quickly determine it's structure as far as where to cut and improve it's growth patterns. The growth in spring will cover up any mistakes you might make, unless you do something pretty severe. Try to avoid that. Either case, you can prune your shrubs and trees yourself following the key pointers listed here. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Exceptions to Consider When Pruning in Winter:</b><br />
<br />
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HJR3rHKt3Zw/UtJRmjwcYgI/AAAAAAAAA68/iD_nHw67nOQ/s1600/slide0085_image097.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="237" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HJR3rHKt3Zw/UtJRmjwcYgI/AAAAAAAAA68/iD_nHw67nOQ/s1600/slide0085_image097.jpg" width="320" /></a>1.) If you have trees with heavy sap, minimize the stress on these sap-bleeding trees and wait to prune until <u>after</u> their leaves have fully developed.<br />
<br />
2.) For early-spring blooming shrubs, including Lilac, Forsythia, Rhododendron, and Hydrangeas, these plants bear flowers on wood formed the previous year. Thus with thier coming spring blooms, wait until they're finished blooming until late spring or early summer; unless you don't mind having a smaller display of blooms.<br />

<br />
<br />
<b>Tips for Your Pruning Cutting Tools:</b><br />
<ul>
<li>Use sharp and proper cutting tools: tree and shrub pruners, pole pruners and saws. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Sterilize your tools with alcohol and spray with W-2 oil when needed. </li>
</ul>
<br />
<b>Key Pruning Tips to Follow:</b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KPQpvKSF3PU/UtJSH1N4iTI/AAAAAAAAA7U/v76jvW2j5hg/s1600/cutting.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="184" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KPQpvKSF3PU/UtJSH1N4iTI/AAAAAAAAA7U/v76jvW2j5hg/s320/cutting.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<ul>
<li>First find and cut off all dead or injured wood. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Work carefully and don't hack: with the exception of topiary or formed hedges, don't hack your trees and shrubs into boxed shapes that promote unhealthy growth. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Remember to make your cuts after the point of a bloom or branch out. And avoid cutting against the trunk.

</ul>
<ul>
<li>For large branches, make a cut into the under side of the branch, then
cut from the top. This reduces rips and tears in the bark that can
introduce disease into the main trunk of the tree. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Finely cut away branches that are growing too close or remove one that's growing into the other. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Remove branches that are crossing another or growing backwards in direction. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Cut suckers -the twigs growing up from the ground or base of the plant. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>For taller trees, the first layer of structured branches should be six feet above ground.</li>
<li>If you're cutting back height, give a natural rounded curve to the overall structure while cutting. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Trim away branches that are growing directly straight up. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Step back, away and walk around the plant you're cutting to ensure you're making the right cuts. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Remember, to open up the structure and create clean lines on more complex shrubs. </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Step back and get a good view of the overall shape -don't remove too much and don't tip ends: cut from within.</li>
</ul>
<br />
<b>So give it a shot, take a few hours and get outside in the garden. You'll be glad you did.</b><br />

and require less and/or similar water requirements. Look for perennials,
ornamental grasses, groundcovers and evergreens. Select plants that
offer varied color foliage and texture. Evergreens and conifer plants
that are dwarf varieties work great for the coldest of climates. </span></span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;"><span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">A mix of cactus and succulents with trailing or upright Rosemary
works for a desert climate. For oncoming snow climates, try a 1.5 to 3
foot evergreen conifer mixed with winter hardy perennial plants and
groundcovers such as ivy, dwarf heavenly bamboo or black ribbon grass.
Or a combintation with white cabbage, ivy, Silverleaf Cinneraria, black
violet pansies and moss.</span></span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 9pt;"><br /></span><span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Containers
for your plant selection should be 1/3 to a 1/2 larger than the
rootball of your largest plant to allow enough space for soil and root
growth for plants. </span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">First step, sprinkle 1/2 to 1 inch of gravel
as a first layer in the bottom of the container -this has always worked
for us; and ENSURE there are at least 3 drain holes to let water drain
out the bottom. </span></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"></span></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Soil should match up with your plants
requirements: use a moisture retaining soil if moisture loving plants;
use a soil mixed with sand if you have cactus or succulent varieties for
a desert climate; otherwise use general garden soil for most settings.</span></span></span></div>

are most dramatic when you group plants in odd numbers using 3 to 5

<br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">While arranging, think of
creating a pyramid or triangle effect, top down with a taller plant at
one side of container, a lower plant below it and a plant that trails
over the container's edges as the third candidate. </span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Add a
pyramid wire trellis to a large square or round garden container and
allow a diverse climate evergreen vine, such as jasmine, to grow into it
with a few trailing plants down the edges of the container.</span></span></span></div>

Potting Techniques</span></span></b><br />
<div style="color: #302b49;">
<span style="font-size: 9pt;"><br /></span><span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">When
potting plants, don't be afraid to scratch at the rootballs to open up
roots and allow them to expand in the container. Rootbound plants, particularly evergreens, won't mind being cut into and torn a bit to
remove dead bound up roots. During potting, be sure the top soil level
of plants meet together at the same level. Never bury a plant too deep
or too high. You can pack soil under the plant while you are arranging
them for level and placement. </span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Be sure to pack the soil in well around
and between your plants. And allow for and inch of space or
more, between the top level of your plants and the top edge of the
container, to shelter plants and provide room to hold water during
watering. Once planted and even, optionally place a layer of light
gravel, ornamental bark, moss or sphagnum moss to cover the soil and
keep nutrients in.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 9pt;"><span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Use a generous amount of Fish Fertilizer, Start-Up or Vitamin
B-1 right after planting and water well. This is a key secret of most
nursery growers. Once plants are established even the use of Miracle
Grow will feed the soil which gets depleted over time since the plants
are remaining in the same container for a long period. Monitoring the
watering of your containers is important; spend $12 and get a plant
moisture meter which gives you an accurate reading. </span></span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 9pt;"><span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Otherwise, allow containers to dry for a day or two before watering
after initial planting. Then, allow containers to dry fairly well
before watering again, but at the time of watering, do deep watering:
fill the containers with water until well saturated, and after the water
settles, fill it again. Then wait a week before repeating this intense
watering. Deep watering tends to work once a week, increasing to two to
three times a week in very hot, summer conditions. Decreasing in winter
or rain exposed conditions two a few times a month -just put your finger
in the soil, if it feels moist, don't water at all. If dry, water.</span></span></span></span></div>

<span class="userContent"><span style="color: #38761d;">A few pictures from our temporary space in Lake Tahoe, CA, such a beautiful place to be and live! The plants certainly enjoy the summers here! But many of my plants I relocated from my Southern California desert canyon location, won't likely survive the winter unless I build a greenhouse, which is, of course, on the research list for fall, RIGHT NOW as this is written. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span class="userContent"><span style="color: #38761d;">The goal is to build some sort of greenhouse that can tolerate snow! </span></span><br />
<span class="userContent"><span style="color: #38761d;"><br /></span></span>
<span class="userContent"><span style="color: #38761d;">If you can point me to products and suggestions, please email me at: sales@landngarden.com. I do sell a couple greenhouses, but I am looking to build something that is temporary and or moveable that again, can withstand heavy snow.</span></span><br />

<br />
<span class="userContent"><span style="color: #38761d;">I have made two trip to Roger's Gardens within the last year, and was in heaven each time. This is the type of destination store I would like to do with the Land & Garden business, once I have more financing. Of course, Roger's Garden's is located within the customer demographic of Newport Beach, where the sun is usually shining warm and the average home price was listed as around $1.2 million - in one article I read. And, location, location: it's right against a huge, major shopping mall, Fashion Show Mall. So, you can't go wrong with this sort of traffic into your store, can you? In fact, I think you can only succeed.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span class="userContent"><span style="color: #38761d;">Having grown up in the Northwest and worked at various nurseries around the Seattle area, as well as operating a landscape design business there when I was in my twenties; I am quite familiar with awesome destination nursery and garden stores of the Northwest. I loved just about every one I went to, and Swanson's Nursery was the most inspiring! But I have to admit, Roger's Gardens tops the cake. I've seen nothing like it. Especially with it's grand Christmas displays. There are about four rooms of Christmas display -the gold room, the silver room, the red and green room and the white room. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span class="userContent"><span style="color: #38761d;">Year round, the gardens have landscaped areas to stop by and meander through, as well as little store areas such as the orchid room, the book area, the cooking interest area, the outdoor furniture section, etc. It's like a department store for gardens and outdoor living, which is exactly how I had visioned my online retail store of Land & Garden, when I launched less than a year ago, not having seen nor known about Roger's.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span class="userContent"><span style="color: #38761d;">Either case, below, I offer some of the pictures I took while meandering the grounds of Roger's. Please, if there are any volunteers out there, let's partner and create a Land & Garden destination store in Northern California! Crickets. Humm, well, I will keep planning and dreaming in the meantime! </span></span><span class="userContent"><span style="color: #38761d;"></span></span><br />

<span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;">A Few Beautiful Snapshots from Lake Tahoe!</span></h3>
<br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-size: small;">I recently moved my business, Land & Garden ®, to Lake Tahoe, California. I thought to share with you some of my most recent pictures taken with my phone camera. The images are from my outings by the lake and in the adjacent mountains while mountain biking or hiking. </span><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: small;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: small;">The skies are so blue, the air so clean. The people are so friendly -I'm sure happy simply because of living in such a beautiful location. It would be great to open a store here someday....dream, dream. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-size: small;">But the feeling here at Tahoe is like being on top of the world. Not only due to the high altitude of almost 7000 feet. I'm sure that's why the native American tribes called it the "Lake of the Sky". </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-size: small;">Who knows how long I'll stay, but it sure is beautiful! Enjoy the pictures! </span><br />

Start by placing a seating area across a perimeter corner to maximize space and create the feel of a room. Small patios may rule out garden spaces, but the use of garden planters and adding tall, narrow hedges of lush provides greenery and </span></span><span class="userContent"><span style="color: #38761d;"><span class="userContent"><span style="color: #38761d;">privacy</span></span>. This outdoor room design adds a few chinese garden stools as tables, with outdoor pillows that add color and soften the look as well as providing inviting comfort. A shade umbrella is a must for daytime shade and night time cover. The center table becomes your "coffee table". The addition of ground-cover plants in this patio are cleverly added to edges of and within the patio itself, to frame the space and add as much foliage texture as possible.</span></span><br />

Gazing balls and ornamental spheres add a great visual focal point to any size of garden. Whether you have a small patio, deck or large landscape, garden gazing balls and reflective, glass or any sort of sphere adds an amazing presence to the garden. Types of balls or sphere can vary in material from glass, metal, iron, wood, wire, cement, resin and more. Sizes could range from four inches to four feet. Glass gazing balls and spheres should be placed in an area with less traffic -including dogs. Gazing balls create a nice focal point when placed on a gazing ball stand made of wood, resin, cement, steel or forged iron. Situate your gazing ball in the middle or a garden area to create visual interest.<br />
