Early Summer Veggie Garden. Tomato, Basil, Romaine Lettuce, Asparagus. Leslie Rohrer
Design ideas for a traditional landscaping in Atlanta.

I planted Marvel of Four Season lettuce seeds, which are heat tolerant, directly next to the soaker hose so they stay constantly moist. Seeds must never be allowed to dry out. I will divide these seedlings in the next few weeks

The mighty carrot is easily grown on fertile soil. Here we have a rainbow mix. Notice the sort-out of size and deformity. All fruit and vegetables offer the chance for "uglies" that are often more tasty than their counterparts. Photo by Gil Schieber, Skipley Farm, Borealis Landscape & Design

Permaculture Orchard, Natick MA 3-1/2 months old. Complete regenerating ecosystem of food production. Also known as a "food forest" meaning in the example of mother nature there is no tilling, weeding is minimal to none as plantings are intentionally condensed to provide nutrients and weed control to each other. Since the industrial revolution monoculture taught us to grow one massive crop for profit. Mother nature rules as there is minimal maintenance after 5-6 years of establishing the succession plantings. Things take time but with a good investment of your time and effort upfront will give you returns for the lifetime of the site as all perennial fruit,vegetable, and medicinal plants that require no fertilizers or pesticides.

Organic gardening and self sustaining at its finest. With filtered irrigation systems, organic fertilizer injectors, recirculating evaporative cooling systems, retractable shade canopies and misting fans to control the humidity levels. This greenhouse was truly customized from the ground up. Boasting 825 square foot of interior space, this client will never purchase another vegetable from the big box stores!

We will create a visually attractive perimeter in areas you thought were not workable. We use rocks, walkways and water features in areas traditionally covered with ground cover vegetation or mulch.

After: in Mid July - only 3 weeks after planting, there is explosive growth of the leaves in the vegetable garden! The soil in the raised beds has been carefully chosen to combine fertility with good drainage. The plants are carefully selected to be disease-resistant as well as delicious-tasting.
