Pergola Design – How To Choose The Best Pergola Design For Your Needs

A pergola design should be chosen depending on different factors like location, materials and style. A location should be chosen carefully, as the final visual impact can be dramatic. Pergolas can be built stand alone in the garden, in the back yard, or over a patio and attached to the house. Attention should be placed on underground utilities like plumbing pipes and electric cables so as not to have bad surprises while digging the foundations.

Materials used for pergolas, trellises and gazebos construction range from aluminium, to vinyl, to wood. Aluminium and vinyl are virtually maintenance free but not as appealing as wood. Since wood has to withstand UVA and rain, it is a good idea not to save on wood quality and go for hard, tough woods like cedar or red wood.

2012 Will Be a Busy Year for Dunwoody Gardeners

Anniversary of the Dunwoody Nature Center.

The Nature Center was incorporated on Jan. 30, 1992 but will hold celebrations marking its two decades later in the year. That’s because the website and logo are being redesigned and celebration plans will be announced with the launch of the center’s updated site and new look, Executive Director Alan Mothner said last week.

“The Dunwoody Nature Center is incredibly proud to have been a part of this community for the past 20 years,” he added. “We were founded by the community and we continue to serve the community by following our mission to inspire the love of nature and cultivate environmental understanding and stewardship.

 “We are so excited about all of the great things we have planned for 2012 and beyond that will continue to make the Dunwoody Nature Center a hub for all things environmental in Dunwoody and our neighboring communities.”

In addition to anniversary celebrations, some of the center’s first-quarter events of interest to gardeners include:
