especially in my country INDONESIA

The “felt” fabric. Blanc’s installations has two layers of fabric that he drips his water/fertilizer solution through. This is a non-soil installation. The plants root into the fabric and fed by the solution.

Too many palm trees, so here is my frozen front yard, Shawn White eat your heart out!

Joy, have your Chapter Trustee or President check in with Liz at ASLA national and she can certainly help find appropriate speakers for you.

hee! I can remember arguing with collegues over a landscape I called the “two boobs” landscape..some people see it, I geuss some people dont..

and some interesting landscape design 🙂 must be a Viagra office 🙂

the best “construction” site ever 🙂

I agree with Heather about building a track record of using the SSI. It is through application in the real world that tools like the SSI show their strengths and value.
