Excellent advice, Ray!

I would add:
6. Volunteer your time at a non-profit. (This will help boost your morale.)
7. Go to your top choice and tell them you are willing to work 10 hours a week for free.

Hi Hayley,

Looks like you got a couple of strong candidates here…

Also, you can always use our advanced member search to find people in your area. Here are the search results that I found.

Hope this helps!

Not to my knowledge. It may even reduce the cost as they tend to be low maintenance and require minimal water (some species). Also, I understand that most ornamental grasses only need to be cut back once a year.

Awesome. Great idea!

I am in for sure!

Maybe Matt would invite you to join their group? http://www.land8lounge.com/group/risdalumni

That was my first guess… : )

This is a difficult photo to go from…

Where was it located and were there other specimen nearby?

This is a really slick design. Is it yours!?

Wow. Thanks for all the feedback! I found everyone’s feedback, the VTech link, very useful – http://www.ext.vt.edu/pubs/nursery/430-023/430-023.html

A client has requested that trees be planted in pots along a road way as a temporary installation.

Thanks!

This sounds like a new discussion! Haha… : )

I have spec’d No Mow Fine Fescue Blend from Pacific Sod – http://www.pacificsod.com/nomow1.html

I am not sure of any suppliers in your area but it is a mix of Red, Chewings, and Hard Fescues. I am sure you could spec a seed mix of some kind and get a similar effect.

Hope this helps… Andrew

I am in the Bay Area of Northern California, so the climate zone vary. We use pink muhly here, as well, and I am a huge fan.

Thanks!
