Landscaping


Pictures don't really do justice to all the work that has been done. By the landscaping sub and by community members at two planting parties so far. Another one is coming up this weekend. The grass seed is also in for our grassy area in the courtyard and, temporarily, at the parking strip on the east and west side, until we switch to garden beds. There is much more. This is just a sample.

Some Courtyard plantings to the north. Grasses encircling the seeded grassy area. Plants and soaker hoses in place in the swales/infiltration areas and edges. Runnel system also visible. Roof rain water drains into rock runnel catchment areas and drain into swales.


"Berry Hill" at the west entrance. Blueberries, raspberries, marionberries. Kiwis in the background. Is that a berry?


Killingsworth entrance below the retaining wall.


Dogwoods in the northern backyards.


Eastern Redbud on the west side.


Dwarf fruit trees on the east side. There are more on the southwest corner too.


Hard to see, but one of the ginkos on the east side. The west side has a six-foot parking strip for future garden beds. The east side has this eight-foot parking strip for our future garden beds.
