Landscape Awards Program aims at:

• Making a concerned citizenry aware of how quality

landscaping can improve our environment and property

values.

• Recognizing citizens who have taken action through

quality landscaping to attain this end.

• Rewarding skilled professionals who have executed

quality workmanship.

• Encouraging landscape contractors and landscape

architects to continue their efforts to raise the industry’s

image by consistent use of quality materials and competent

workmanship.

evaluated entries and recommended recipients to the awards

committee.

The judges determined the quality of materials (both

plant and construction), design, completeness of installation,

workmanship, and horticultural correctness in the landscape

installation using the digital images, plans and descriptions

submitted with each entry. To ensure that each project would

be judged consistently over a two-day period, the same four

judges reviewed every entry.

Judges for the 2007 Ohio Nursery & Landscape

Association’s Landscape Awards Program were Robert

Bailey, production manager for Darby Creek Nursery

in Hilliard, Ohio; Pam Bennett, state master gardener

coordinator and horticulture educator for The Ohio State

University Extension in Spring eld, Ohio; Forrest Gibson,

associate for The EDGE Group in Columbus, Ohio; and

Rachael Harkleroad, landscape designer for POD Design

in Columbus, Ohio.

discretion of the judges to those entries that merit special

consideration. Jury and judging procedures for the Judges’

Special Award will be the same as the Grand Award. Merit

Awards may be given at the discretion of the judges. Awards

may not be given in a category if, in the judges’ opinions, no

entry warrants an award.

Clinton

The Gray-Wilbur Residence

“This project was designed to accommodate

property ooding caused by heavy rain as well as

traf c from two to four people on a routine basis. The

water feature was constructed to provide a point of

relaxation. Relocated nearer to the pond, the porch

house was elevated and given furniture and a ceiling

fan, which provides the client with a tranquil place

to relax. The large rectangular rock outside of the

porch house is the perfect place to dangle your feet

in the clear water and enjoy the atmosphere.”

Columbus

The Pottschmid Residence

“The owners of this home and their two teenage

children enjoy entertaining and needed a patio area

to maximize space. A brick paver patio made of

tumbled brick in an earth tone color blended well with

the house. A sitting wall with a built-in re pit was

added for extra seating. Hemlocks provide privacy

from neighbors and redbuds create a natural canopy.

Ornamental iron and decorative live baskets are

mounted on the side of the garage wall to soften the

view. This new patio is an outdoor space that is both

functional and aesthetically pleasing.”

Columbia Station

The Boyer Residence

“This project is functional as well

as beautiful and is made up of four

separate spaces. The centerpiece

is the outdoor kitchen, which in-

cludes a grill, a sink and lighting. A

gas re pit is located in the center

of the lower brick patio. The upper

patio is a small dining area that is

enclosed with a fence for safety.

The middle patio is the main spot

for entertaining. A custom made

cedar lattice and cascading water

feature create a soothing

atmosphere.”

Grand Award

Columbia Station

The Fay Residence

“Built on the site of an old deck, this new brick patio

makes use of the space to create an outdoor living

area. A simple, square-cut, cedar arbor covers the

entire patio, complementing the modern look of the

home. Changes in brick patterns help de ne the

different spaces and the lush landscape and cus-

tom rock bubbler make the perfect setting for a few

friends to relax. The dining area is less formal, and

is screened from the driveway view by a custom

lattice panel.”

Merit Award

ABI Design/Build Group

Hilliard

The Tartan Fields - Taylor Residence

“The goals of this project were to provide curb appeal

for the surrounding neighborhood, give the homefront

a formal feel, and to create the illusion of depth in

the wooded site. Design elements include introduc-

ing planting beds at the front of the property, which

contribute to a courtyard appearance, and using vari-

ous perennials for a natural look and interesting color.

Mass plantings in the back create a lush space that

allows for entertaining in an intimate setting. The use

of Picea and Tsuga effectively screen the property to

maximize privacy as well as enhancing the wooded

atmosphere of the yard.”

Merit Award

Lifestyle Landscaping, Inc.

Grafton

A Private Residence

“Our clients asked that we transform their lawn into a

retreat that would more closely t the new addition of

a bay window room. A cascading waterfall was con-

structed as the visual centerpiece and a randomly

cut sandstone patio was built to provide an area for

relaxed seating. The edge of the patio cantilevers

over the pond providing a seamless intersection, and

a curbstone step leads up to an intimate dining area.”

Merit Award

Boardman

The Deblasio Residence

“This project was designed as a solution to the

elevation disparities between the client’s walkway

terrace and new garage. Columns subtly add

architectural form, while barnstone retains the beds

and adds historic air. Crown molding links the

garage to the house and the existing chiseled trough

water feature helps break up the auto court to create

a green oasis. Beds and pavement rotate around a

weeping Katsura with lampposts and boulders and

a glimpse of Yellow Creek can be seen past the split

rail fence that encloses the yard.”
