Siapin Horticulture: unique landscape construction in California? Here is a look into our recent project for the beautiful American Martyrs Church in Manhattan beach Ca. Keeping the Drought in mind as well as plants that can thrive in a cool coastal climate we kept a well balance of plants/shrubs/flowers, you will also notice the retainer wall we also installed. The Siapin Horticulture crew also custom fit some artificial turf in the right areas to save additional water for the the church. Full Video in the gallery below. This project was unique because of the epic system, which captures all rainwater on sight and stores in the pipes on the ground which feeds the plants.
Gutters and curbs transport flow fast to a stormwater drain without allowing for pollutant removal or infiltration using an inlet filter. Eliminating gutters and curbs can reduce runoff volumes and increase sheet flow. Maintaining sheet flow by removing gutters and curbs that direct runoff into bioretention basins and swales that are vegetated helps to prevent soil erosion by stormwater also helps retain hydraulic conditions (pre-development). A level distributor, which is a channel designed to convert concentrated discharge into a level stream and evenly distribute it on a slope, can also be included to prevent soil erosion.
Landscape construction is not as easy as making a normal garden area. It includes many technical details that need to be understood and then worked upon. We have the right tools and the equipment that helps us achieve an accurate and precise result. We ensure that all safety measures are followed and assume complete responsibility for every project we undertake. Just sit back and enjoy your green space!

In Los Angeles California, Occidental College needed a lot of work done for their athletic complex. As Siapin Horticulture, we will be certain that the job comes out just how the client asks. We started by rebuilding the Tennis Pavilion with an edible garden including Guava trees, raspberries, and blueberries. Every plant had some sort of fruit. Around this, we installed groundcover to prevent weeds. We also built a new pool and gave it a gratifying vicinity by stringing vine cables to trellises and also cover the walls with vines around the pool. Around the tracks we added new decomposed walkways. Like usual, we used a drought tolerant system to keep the environment the best we can. To top it all off we planted grass around the meeting area, now it’s a great place to grab some tea or coffee and go sit at.
The use of permeable pavement is a stormwater BMP which allows for more environmentally sound outdoor flooring. It is a more feasible alternative to concrete and asphalt flooring in preventing runoff, erosion, and water pollution. Stormwater is absorbed through the porous surface and drains into a stone reservoir. Stormwater runoff is temporarily stored in the reservoir until it is infiltrated into the subsoil. Sand and organic filters let water drain into a sand bed, composed of organic filters which remove impurities from stormwater runoff. Sand beds effectively filter floatables, metals, and other pollutants from stormwater. They improve the quality of water treatment and reduce the amounts of sediments and fecal coliform bacteria in stormwater runoff. This form of stormwater BMP is used as a stage of the water treatment process, usually before stormwater is discharged into groundwater or other receiving areas.
