Learning How to Landscape :: Building Moxie

Some of you follow my tweets @BuildingMoxie.? And I know some of you (*cough* @TitusBuilt) know that I took the week leading up to Memorial Day to check- in (foursquare that is) with a number local supply houses.

What was doing?? Was I getting my ducks in a row for a long overdue grass planting session, essentially bringing the Pennington Seed #Seed4Yourself program full circle?? Nope! (Not just yet.)

While I was playing errand boy for a few small things on my wife?s (frequently-alluded-to) flip project, I was also out, well, pounding the ? pavers.? Ha! That is ? I was out gathering ideas, information and pricing on a handful of large, it?s-time-to-really-dial-this-yard-in, items.? My yard todo, you see, looked something like this:

• a new patio and walks
• pond redo
• timber stairs (to edge out the kids? playset area)
• plant . . . things
• add ground cover
• general seed and lawn repairs
• Mulch &
• Much Much More.

Now . . . I certainly would not consider myself an experienced landscaper.?? With my own houses, my work has pretty much been limited to light fence and walk work? oh and OK, maybe a little lawn work, but nothing like what I am about to undertake.

What I mean ? when I worked with the builder, I did have a small focus on ?grade? and then of course on stabilizing it, but any plant/planting or hardscape work was left to someone else.

Learning How to Landscape (Building Moxie Style)

So . . . equipped with a little knowledge (gleaned from a library book) and some pics of my yard, I ultimately found my way? to local garden center ?? Poor Boys.? When I walked in, a look of fear on my face (or maybe it was ? absolute cluelessness), I was greeted as if they knew I was coming.? I mean ? maybe it was that they had dealt with my type before, but in a matter of minutes (working from the suggestions of specialist Michele Betley), I had a pretty clear . . . path.

Now, one my favorite features of our yard also happens to be one of it?s biggest . . . shortcomings.? Big trees = dense shade.? And I mean dense as in ? it is all but impossible to do anything let alone grow anything in certain areas of our yard.? Or so it has sometimes felt.? But what I came away with? was plan of attack on at least two areas in particular.

A large maple, and maybe you have seen one of my two unsuccessful attempts at growing grass under it . . . , would instead receive a ground cover called Vinca Minor.

A back corner of the yard, pretty much bare of any growth, would receive a garden-encased planting.? This area fortunately gets some sun and on Michele?s recommendations I recently planted it with a pair of Skyrocket Junipers, a smaller juniper, a pair of Gold Mops, a Butterfly Bush (this may not be getting enough sun), and a lovely flowering Little Henry Sweetspire.

Once my wife and I decided on the shape of the bed (I liked an irregular shaped triangle that fit only the bare spot), I built the bed up slightly using top soil while integrating a soil conditioner.? I did this mainly to get the bed off of our cedar fence.? I lined the back edge of it with flat stone.? I thought about incorporating drainage, but did not, feeling that the natural pitch of the yard and a high stone border would work well to shed any water aside?Trimming the bed as I did with field stone actually accounted for the largest majority of work.? I have a rich abundance of this stone, which had been retrieved over the years from the various beds that scattered around the once overgrown yard.

While the Little Henry got the bulk of the attention, the pair of junipers I named after the girls.? on the left and Evyn on the right. This of course got the girls engaged and they had fun helping plant their namesakes.

The hope is with this back corner, and yes I know I should have worked in a powerwashing of the fence (the misses overruled) . . . the addition of a few lively colored annuals to this bed with actually help draw the eye to the once void area of the yard, essentially making the yard feel a tad bit bigger.

*******

And anyway, this is where I?m at and I still lots to do.? But as I go, I can?t help but feel that it is a little bit like building, but with plants.

Much like a wall in a home can provide partition, and in some cases, it can be bearing.? It always includes such things as plumbing or electrical, and it is contained by drywall or some other finishing material.? It is then papered or painted and then usually has with things mounted to it.

I realize ? this is the way I want my landscape to come together, almost structurally.? And a good build can only be determined when and if I can successfully bring all of this various elements together as a whole.

Thanks for reading.? Next: Patching the grass as my stone border?s edge and a giveaway of . . . cash.? ~jb

Tribeca Film Festival Pt.3: Every Tuesday, Sexy Baby & Side By Side ...

Rachel Loube studied sociology at Brandeis University and earned her MFA in social documentary film from the School of Visual Arts in 2011. In addition to Every Tuesday, she produced, directed, and edited the documentary short, This Is Tap, featuring the dancer Michelle Dorrance.

Jill Bauer, Co-Director, Producer, Sound Operator of Sexy Baby, was 15 when she landed her first interview with Barbara Walters and was so taken by the interview process that she never stopped asking questions ? especially about relationships, one of her main beats while at the Miami Herald. Bauer is a Hearst and SPJ award-winning journalist and has written for and edited several magazines and newspapers. ?She is the author of the non-fiction humor book ?From ?I Do? to ?I?ll Sue?: An Irreverent Compendium for Survivors of Divorce.?

Ronna Gradus, Co-Director, Producer, Director of Photography of Sexy Baby, was born and raised in New York City. Since a young age she loved to watch people, so when a camera was placed in her hand a documentarian emerged. She graduated with a BFA from NYU?s Tisch School of the Arts and began her career as a photojournalist. Most notably she was a staff photographer at The Miami Herald where she was dubbed by editors as one of the strongest among the 22-member photography staff. While there, she was sent on several assignments in Cuba and covered Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans.

Chris Kenneallylives in Brooklyn. He wrote, directed, and produced the doc Crazy Legs Conti: Zen and the Art of Competitive Eating. He is currently in pre-production on a narrative feature about a teenage graffiti artist in Coney Island called Green Dolphin and is developing an episodic series called Chef.

21 Jump Street Directors in Talks for Carter Beats the Devil

21 Jump Street directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller are trying to help Carter Beats the Devil finally emerge from development hell.

The once-high flying project, based on the historical mystery novel revolving around magician Charles Carter written by Glen David Gold, has mesmerized Hollywood since it was published in 2001. But despite several big-name efforts to adapt it for the screen, the project has languished.

EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS: Behind the Scenes of '21 Jump Street'

Now, however, Lord and Miller are in talks to come aboard to direct the movie, which has been set up at Warners Bros. since 2010. Jon Shestack is producing from a script by Michael Gilio.

Set in the 1920s, the story centers on Carter, a real-life stage magician who performs a trick involving then-President Warren G. Harding. When the president is later found dead, Carter is forced to go on the run and clear his name. The book featured many other real-life figures, such as television inventor Philo Farnsworth, Harry Houdini and the young Marx Brothers.

Paramount originally optioned the book in 2002 for Tom Cruise to star and his banner, Cruise/Wagner, to produce. Once that deal lapsed, AMC took a stab at turning it into a TV series, butthe network couldn?t figure out the adaptation trick either.

Lord and Miller are an interesting choice for what would be a period adventure movie a la Warners' Sherlock Holmes. The duo co-created the short-lived cartoon series Clone High but made their mark in feature animation with the 2009 adaptation of Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, successfully translating a tricky picture book into a hit movie for Sony.

Their first foray into live-action was March's Jump Street, which showed how a big-screen adaptation of a TV series could win critics as well as audiences. (The movie, starring Jonah Hill and Channint Tatum, has made a surprising $136 million domestically.)

The duo is currently working on an untitled CG-animated Lego movie for Warner Bros., which clearly wants to keep working with the filmmakers. They are repped by UTA and Ziffren Brittenham.

Toshiba outs Satellite U840W Ultrabook with 14.4-inch, 21:9 display

It's a shame we have to write headlines -- we would have invited you to guess what screen size you're looking at on that Ultrabook up there. Alas, though, you can read, and that funky-looking laptop is indeed the Toshiba Satellite U840W (yes, that's "W" for widescreen, and also note that American models from Toshiba tend to tack a 5 on the end, so this could well be the U845W when it reaches the States). Its display measures an unusual 14.4 inches diagonally, which translates to a severe 21:9 aspect ratio (and 1792 x 768 resolution, in this case). All told, it's the first panel of its kind to be used in a PC. But who's it for, exactly? Toshiba reps said the aspect ratio is meant to mimic a movie theater screen, but they also imagine people using that real estate for multitasking and getting work done in cramped airplane quarters.

It's also meant to get your attention. Everything about it seems designed to make a statement: the machined aluminum design, the soft-touch accents, the backlit keyboard, even the metal FCC plate and chrome-ringed feet. The machine's also decked out with Harman Kardon speakers, like other Toshiba laptops, along with amenities like sleep-and-charge and sleep-and-music ports. You'll also find an Ethernet jack, HDMI output and three USB 3.0 sockets. It's a bit ironic, then, that the weakest bit seems to be the display -- with a TN panel like that, we're not expecting jaw-dropping viewing angles.

On the inside, it runs your choice of Ivy Bridge processor, though the storage varies wildly depending on how much money you're willing to pay: at the entry level you get an HDD starting at £899, but the top-tier configuration nets you 256GB solid-state drive. The weight is also likely to vary depending on which you choose: though these specs aren't final, Toshiba is saying a machine with a spinning hard drive should weigh "just under" four pounds, while an SSD-packing machine should come in at about 3.5. The company is also staying mum on battery life for now, though we're hearing a tentative range of eight to ten hours, at the high end. The U840W is expected to go on sale in the next couple of months, and US pricing hasn't yet been announced. Until then, we've got hands-on photos below.
