I have not heard from anyone in over 6 months! I haven't been blogging very much either. Wanted to let you know what is going on a little bit before the end of the year. We finally cleaned up the front entrance island. If you are thinking it still needs something - it does. We wanted to create a clean pallet. We're planning on putting a fountain in the middle, and are in the process of obtaining ideas and quotes. There will also be additional shrubs, but we need to decide on the fountain first.<div><br /></div><div>We're also working on facelifts for Egret Ridge and Raven's Rook, and developing a design for the Lift Station @ Perigrine Point, West, and a plan to add some trees to the communities open tracts of land. We're still working on Alafaya Utilities to provide water to the other Lift Station. So folks out there - - we have not forgotten you.</div><div><br /></div><div>By the way, we are interested in how the community feels about the use of annuals in the community. Do we need them? Do we like them? What are your thoughts?</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6080171231073499180-3167505520379577134?l=www.thesanctuaryhoa.org%2Fblog%2Flandscape_blog.html'/></div>Christinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00536739361498544795noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6080171231073499180.post-89001766149264149502009-04-01T08:58:00.008-04:002009-04-20T22:39:36.070-04:00Tree is a diamond cut Sylvester Date Palm with 5 feet of wood. Tree surround is dwarf purple and white Angelonia (a perennial said to flower 6-7 mo. of the year). Total price is $2250.00, which included 125 asiatic jasmine plants which the committee decided against - in favor of angelonia (less expensive). We may be adding an addition permanent hedge around the bottom of the tree to better anchor it. Tree cost is $1500.00 and will currently be purchased from Black Hammock Nurseries.<div><br /></div><div>It is always an on-going endeavor to get the most we possibly can from the money we pay. We continue to negotiate and re-negotiate until it is planted, and I will keep you posted of any changes.<br /><div><br /><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="http://www.thesanctuaryhoa.org/blog/uploaded_images/landscape_2-710089.jpg" border="0" alt="" /><div><br /><div><br /></div></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6080171231073499180-8900176614926414950?l=www.thesanctuaryhoa.org%2Fblog%2Flandscape_blog.html'/></div>Christinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00536739361498544795noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6080171231073499180.post-12255924896942718842009-03-31T21:47:00.000-04:002009-03-31T22:19:45.853-04:00Hello,<br /><br />My name is Christin Hards and I am the Sanctuary Landscape Chair.
