Introduction

The task we have been assigned to do is to produce a green space proposal which consists of concept, master plan, planting plan, costing, construction detail and maintenance plan based on a selected 10mx10m. We have chosen a space within block C and D above Truffles restaurant.

Site Analysis

Fsff sf This site gets the straight sunlight in afternoon onwards. In morning until 12pm the site is covered by shade of upper levels which blocking sunlight. The wind blowing comes from west in selected area. Walls in 3 sides surround the site and the other side is facing lakeside.

Concept

The chosen area is to be designed a resting relaxation place for students and lecturers as well. It can also be used for tutorial meetings. The area is built in an eco-friendly way to

make it more sustainable.

Chlorophytum comosum

Spider Plant It is native to

tropical countries. Chlorophytum

comosum grows to about 60 centimetres (24 in) high.

It has fleshy, tuberous roots, about 5–10

centimetres (2–4 in) long. The long narrow leaves reach a length of 20–45

centimetres (8–18 in) and are around 6–25

millimetres (0.2–1.0 in) wide

2 Tropical Hostas - It is native to tropical countries. With the

characteristic of big leaves, it could act as ground

shades.

3 Hymenocallis Spider Lily Most Hymenocallis must be grown in a warm greenhouse or in a

sheltered sunny spot where the ground does not

freeze. The North American species H.

occidentalis is found as far north as southwestern

Indiana where winters can reach 0 °F (−18 °C). They

like good drainage and grow well in a soil rich with

organic matter. The following species

and hybrids are found in cultivation

Terminalia Mantaly

-

Terminalia is a genus of large trees of the flowering plant family Combretaceae,

comprising around 100 species distributed in tropical regions of the world. This genus gets it

name from Latin terminus, referring to the fact that the leaves appear at the very

tips of the shoots.

Microstegium vimineum

Japanese grass

It is native in much of South Asia, East Asia as well as parts of Southeast Asia. It typically grows to heights between 40 and

100 cm (1.3 and 3.3 ft) and is capable of rooting at each node. The plant

flowers in late summer and produces its seeds in the form of achenes shortly thereafter. In addition to

herbicides, hand weeding and mowing are among the most successful methods

of removal.
