Roof Top irrigation and Garden design NYC


Anyone who has had a conversation with Todd Nappi from New York Plantings Garden Design and Irrigation companies knows well the enthusiasm of a hardcore gardener, a mechanical tradesman and tech enthusiast.

Dedication to finding new technology (that works and is relevant, not just bells and whistles) constantly learning, gaining experience, looking for new and better ways to complete projects and provide the most reliable and uncomplicated, serviceable drip irrigation systems for NYC penthouse rooftop gardens, townhouse landscapes and commercial applications is clear.

    Even on days "Off" Todd Nappi is still landscaping or gardening, tweaking his own landscape drip irrigation systems or planning the landscape lightingsystems for clients.The consideration of agriculture has come to the forefront with drip irrigation as well so have a look at the quoted text from the Toro website on drip irrigation systems.

Just as the automotive industry learns and gains performance technology and increased reliability or dependability from the racing enthusiasts.
The garden and ornamental horticulture industry gains benefit from the testing and development enjoyed by the drip irrigationresearchers of agricultural brethren.
Have  look at some of the points made below by Toro and it is clear that each point can carry volumes of discussion.

Today it is more important than ever to use water resources wisely and to irrigate intelligently. Consequently, many farmers have turned to dripirrigation and have enjoyed improved profitability by increasing crop yield and quality while at the same time reducing costs from water, energy, labor, chemical inputs and water runoff. Many landscapers have also enjoyed significant water and capital investment savings using drip irrigation, while simultaneously improving plant vigor by delivering water and nutrients directly to the plant roots and avoiding unnecessary wetting of plant leaves.

Drip irrigation is the targeted, intelligent application of water, fertilizer, and chemicals that when used properly can provide great benefits, such as:

  • Increased revenue from increased yields
  • Increased revenue from increased quality
  • decreased water costs
  • decreased labor costs
  • decreased energy costs
  • decreased fertilizer costs
  • decreased pesticide costs
  • Improved environmental quality
Get a drip irrigation system. You will look like the hero gardener.

Newyorkplantings garden designers andLandscape Contractors have made a great business out of making use of this Manhattan based landscape company's long standing hardscape design and installations by taking that outdoor custom carpentry skill in building customfences, rooftop and rear yard decks, and of course....planter boxes...

  To make a dedicated shop solely to help manufacture custom builtplanters.
These beautiful large cedar custom planters are coated with 3 liberal coats of polyurethane clear after a fine 3 step sanding process. Hidden fasteners driven through the 3/4" marine grade laminate liner and laminate beam reinforcement ties the sides to the bottom of planter.
A heavy duty 1.25" thick pressure treated decking board is used for the bottom. Making the strongest and most beautiful custom planter boxes in NewYork City came from years of gardening experience on rooftop and penthouse gardens, planting in sidewalk planters for hotels and restaurants for commercial gardens and landscapes.

Noticing many styles and designs of wood planters as well as noting just where the traditional carpenters make mistakes or build planters with brads or nailguns to save time but this does not make as good of a joint as the heavy duty screws or stainless steel screws used by NY Plantings Garden Designers of Manhattan.
Taking note of where most Planters fell and need to be strengthened and where Planters tent to become soft splint or rotted and where Planters should be protected from the moist heavy soil that will deteriorate wood or create pressure inside the planter box.
The ability for a planter box to properly support a tree or plant encouraging growth and good plant health is possible by considering factors such as proper drainage ability, insulating qualities and of course custom sizing and shape that will grant as much soil capacity as possible. Even a few inches in each direction and almost double the soil capacity creating a much better living environment for plantings compared to pre made Planters purchased online or in local stores.
When looking for custom Planters in any size from window box Planters or flower boxes to large built-in Terrace Gardens, penthouse roof decks or large cube style tree Planters for sidewalks and cafes you can know that New Yorkplantings can build for you Planters that can last a lifetime. Contact New Yorkplantings garden designers & Landscape Contractors for your custom Planters. Payment is always made in full upon ordering and special service that goes beyond just a quality plaster such as delivery options with set up of drainage filter fabric and soil delivered to your home garden or commercial building rooftop and sidewalk gardens.

NYC terrace garden design ideas and tips by New York Plantings Garden Designers and Landscape contracting

If you have an empty terrace with no planters this is an exciting time because we can choose the styles you like.  The planters, soil (several bags) gravel for drainage and then the plantings (trees, shrubs, flowers etc.) are the biggest investment.
Private Terrace garden by New York Plantings
Sunny, shade, privacy, the view from inside the home, taking care to not block a special view, color all year, interesting color and the style you like are some things to think about.

With a large terrace you can even have a couple of different styles or "rooms".  Dividing the terrace for a secret garden and one area for entertaining or family.
Maybe you like to grow some herbs or vegetables too.
Drip Irrigation is very important. No way can anyone hand water this and expect to have a nice garden or most times it will not live. Vacation and other things come into question as babysitters never can water how you water. 
Landscape Drip Irrigation NYC
New York Plantings Irrigation and Landscape Lighting have many yrs of exp with automated drip irrigation installation in NYC and Long island area.
Lighting in the taller trees is good too to creating a warm inviting feeling like a lounge or park like feelings.
The corners can have large planters and trees. Corners are always wasted space and the best opportunity to add focal points and you can afford more space in corners of your terrace or rooftop garden.
Corner place in NYC terrace garden
Consider at least 3 large trees and with large terrace a simple hedge is good. Against the walls is sheltered and we can even have some climbing roses, FIG trees and other delightful plantings.
Making a plan: we can make a top down view on paper so that you know exactly what you are getting.

Why call New York Plantings Irrigation and Landscape Lighting NYC?

NYC Rooftop gardens, terrace irrigation systems and penthouse gardens can use this great automatic watering system which is known as drip irrigation. NY Plantings began utilizing Drip Irrigation systems for high end landscapes and replacing lawn sprinklers with drip irrigation.
Water loss by traditional spray type irrigation
The traditional spray type irrigation loss waters by spraying wider areas rather than to specific plant root zone. That’s why converting traditional spray type irrigation to drip irrigation system has more advantages and it delivers water to specific root areas using point emitters. Where traditional spray type irrigation was simply causing more harm than good in some cases in urban landscape designs or townhouse garden irrigation systems. 
Townhouse garden irrigation systems
The NYC drip irrigationinstaller saw the advantages and proven water saving drip irrigation applications long before the popularity of retrofitting drip irrigation where traditional lawn sprinklers were being used. Therefore, we recommended to our all customers and others use the new drip irrigation system to keep your plant healthy in all seasons.
