i think i might revise my idea.
Jade as pictured in the attachment grows quite well outside here. (i think it’s crassula ovata?
Can anyone verify that?)Would it grow inside as well? How deep would the hole need to be?

Renee replied to the topic How to select a Master? in the forum STORY BOARD 8 years, 11 months ago
In the US, you can do a thesis project on a specific topic of your choice, but I’ve found that the programs have fairly rigid standards and there’s not a lot of room to take elective classes. I’m not sure how programs work where you’re looking, though. I would try to get a job with the education you have and see how you like it, and only then…[Read more]

I’m not sure people understand your question, “what are the master causes for a BLA degree holder.” Are you asking why people with BLA degrees would get their master’s degree? Why do you think you need it? Do you want to do research?

Be cautious of tree species that require a dormancy. Almost all oaks and Lagerstroemia require a great deal of light indoors.

Rob Halpern replied to the topic Tree for inside/ outside in the forum DETAILS & MATERIALS 8 years, 11 months ago
Important issues that I believe have not been mentioned:
If the same tree species is to be used, it must thrive in the outdoor conditions but also indoor conditions: winter heat and dry air, summer AC, light level. If light is coming only from above then there will be leaves only on the perimeter of the canopy.
The type of glazing over the planter…[Read more] -

Craig Richmond, RLA replied to the topic What can I call 'this'? in the forum DETAILS & MATERIALS 8 years, 11 months ago
I can understand not wanting to keep a homeless person from peacefully laying down in a public space, but I wouldn’t think twice about giving a skateboarder more than the middle finger for chipping the edge off of a $100k custom seat wall. I guess it’s easy to make a stand for someone having fun as long as they’re not destroying your property.

As a designer, and a skater, I’m on the edge about these. It’s like the middle bar on a public bench. It’s a middle finger to a specific group of people that they are not welcome. But I do get the use of them. I have seen the result achieved in a more aesthetically pleasing way. Check out this pic. Another option is to design the pavement or…[Read more]

Yes i don’t want fruit growing in the house. I’ll look into the small crapes. Since the the property contains mostly live coast oaks, i like the idea of a scrub oak.
Thanks for the information Tyson. -
Tyson Carroll replied to the topic Tree for inside/ outside in the forum DETAILS & MATERIALS 8 years, 11 months ago
Paul,
Also consider maintenance requirements. While I like the use of stone fruit consider the surrounding concrete and if any dropping fruit will cause any aesthetic issue. At your size constraints you are limited and might be more inline with a large shrubs verse tree. Some of the smaller crapes could work, Dr. Hurd Manzanita, Mexican Redbud (if…[Read more] -

Jamie Chen replied to the topic Tree for inside/ outside in the forum DETAILS & MATERIALS 8 years, 11 months ago
You can do that too. It is a buildable solution.
However, in terms of labor cost (which is the biggest variable that increases total project cost) the time it would take to excavate down, leveling and fine grading, build out the wooden forms, pour, wait for the thicker concrete to cure, and then remove the forms, would be much greater than simply…[Read more] -
Paul Minotto replied to the topic Tree for inside/ outside in the forum DETAILS & MATERIALS 8 years, 11 months ago
Thanks so much for all the information Jamie. I was not aware of the RWS Root Watering System.
I was thinking more along the lines of creating a concrete planter extending into the ground from the foundation so that the roots would be contained and lining the bowl with waterproofing.
Why would this not be a good idea? -

Hi Mark thanks for your reply! Plenty of food for thought, thank you for taking the time out to write such a thorough response.Since you asked, pavers are pre-cast. the 600 x 300 mm size is but one of several standards, 600 x 600 square and 600 x 750 are also common. In Vietnam 300 x 300 mm terrazzo units are also very common!Interesting that…[Read more]
