We are excited to share that the Ohio Landscaping Association presented Wimberg Landscaping with a Merit Award for our Wasson Way Garden, at the corner of Paxton and Wasson, near Hyde Park Plaza. Just a year old now, this pollinator garden is thriving in what was slated to become another unnecessary expanse of lawn following the reconfiguration of the traffic pattern. Our team devised a planting scheme that is heavy on drought-tolerant plants that thrive in full sun. There’s a thoughtful mix of native and cultivars to ensure a long season of blooms, winter interest, as well as to ensure sightlines remain open for pedestrian and car traffic.

 

“In a hot, cement, heavily trafficked area, you can now see a slice of beauty. This garden illustrates how even small spaces can be an oasis for nature,” shares Peter Wimberg.
