22.01.2022 Progress shot of the planter boxes in this Reservoir garden. We can’t wait to see how much produce our clients can get from a relatively small space. #reclaimedspaces #reclaimyourspace #landscapeconstruction #landscaping #conservation #inspireconservation #sustainability #communityhealth #environment #passion #collaboration #quality #balance #biodiversity #reservoir #urbanfarm #foodgarden #growathome #darebin #urbanfarming #growyourownfood #healthyfood #nature #gardening #growyourown #garden #vegetables #permaculture #sustainable #wurundjericountry

21.01.2022 How amazing is this... A tree listed as critically endangered has produced a flower that had never been recorded before by science. According to @goodnewsnetwork Karomia gigasis one of the rarest trees on the planet. A member of the mint family, it is also related to oregano, rosemary, and thyme. It grows wild in East-Central Africa and Tanzania. It’s so unknown there’s no common name for it in English, Swahili, or any other African language. Growing straight up to heights o...f over 20m it’s thought one reason there is no previous image of the flower is that an adultK. gigasdoesn’t produce branches until halfway up the trunk, so the rapidly-wilting flowers may emerge too high to have been seen. As well as growing in a difficult-to-replicate kind of soil substrate consisting primarily of old corral and termite leavings, K. gigas is very susceptible to fungus, and its wood is similar to teak, and so is occasionally poached. All this pressure puts the tree among the most endangered of the 60,000-known tree species. Apart from the thirty saplings growing in the @mobotgarden the Tanzanian Forrest Service estimate there are two dozen or more others, but only in Mitundumbea Forest Reserve and Litipo Forest Reserve in Tanzania, both of which are protected areas characterized by flat woodlands that used to be the ocean floor. According to Andrew Wyatt, Senior Vice President of Horticulture and Living Collections at the @mobotgarden The idea of actually preserving the species is entirely possible. It’s protected in Tanzania. We have collections in the botanical garden. Once we’ve got enough seed, we hope we can store it [in a freezer] and create a buffer between loss. #endangeredspecies #conservation #nature #endangered #plantconservation #treeconservation #endangeredplants #africa #naturephotography #photography #criticallyendangered #flowers #climatechange #plantphotography #plantsofinstagram #natgeo #photooftheday #biodiversity #savetheplanet #plantlovers #treelovers #plantloversofinstagram

20.01.2022 After lockdown, wet weather and a long weekend, it was great to be back on site today and progressing this small urban farm in Reservoir. #reclaimyourspace #urbanfarming #planterboxes #vegetablegarden #veggiegarden #urbanfarm #landscaping #landscapedesign #landscapeconstruction #reservoir #melbournelandscaper #residentiallandscape #sustainableliving #growathome #greenliving #sustainability #backonsite #nolawnyard #timber #soil #construction #design #gardendesign #landscapephotography #outdoorliving #ecofriendly #environment #foodgarden #inspireconservation #communityhealth

19.01.2022 What do you think of our recycled concrete pavers? Cement contributes approx 8% of the world’s CO2 emissions. To put this into context, if the cement industry were a country, it would be the third largest emitter in the world - behind China and the US So we love it when clients are keen to reuse the materials that are on hand. By saw cutting the original concrete path and turning it into pavers, we have substantially decreased the carbon footprint of this build and created... some great stepping stones around the vegetable garden (if we do say so ourselves). #concrete #construction #design #concretedesign #cement #landscaping #landscape #landscapedesign #garden #gardendesign #landscapephotography #landscaper #outdoorliving #backyard #hardscape #recycling #recycle #upcycling #sustainability #reuse #environment #ecofriendly #sustainable #recycled #upcycle #green #climatechange #reclaimyourspace #reclaimedspaces #landscapeconstruction

11.01.2022 Have you heard of @urbanfieldnaturalist ? They are hoping to inspire people to take note of the plants and animals that you walk past each day, but don’t necessarily see. The project was launched in 2020, at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, by a group of researchers from design, environmental and life science faculties at the University of Sydney and the University of Technology Sydney. ... So with Victoria back in lockdown this week try slowing down and taking note of the natural things around you. #citynature #nature #ig #naturephotography #urbannature #city #natureinthecity #photography #naturelovers #streetphotography #flowers #architecture #autumn #trees #green #cityphotography #melbournelove #cityview #citylife #cityscape #citylandscape #landscape #melbourne #lockdown4 #urbanphotography #urbanfieldnaturalist #photographersofinstagram #naturelovers #urbanflora #urbanfauna
