To create a botanical

garden and conservatory of

extraordinary beauty that

engages, enlightens and

inspires people about

plants and nature.

Dear Friends,

We’ve been hard at work over the past

few months! Botanica and members of

our design team at Perkins+Will have been

very busy working to transform a blank

sheet of drafting paper into a picture of

what the future gardens will be.

Our work has included studying the

site to understand its challenges and

opportunities, looking at trends in

botanical garden design and programming

and listening to feedback from supporters like you so we can be sure that

the Waterfront Botanical Gardens will be a reflection of all the voices in

our community.

The product of all this work is the recently completed Master Plan,

which will set the overall tone and structure for the gardens. In the pages

that follow, you’ll see that the resulting design is a contemporary botanical

garden that is uniquely ours.

The completion of the Master Plan is a significant step in our journey,

but our work is by no means done. In the coming months, we’ll be

preparing ourselves for the next phase of our effort: launching the capital

campaign that will raise the funds for construction of the gardens.

We’ve accomplished so much together! All of our work has been made

possible through your generous support. I hope you will continue to

support Botanica and the garden project as we head in to these next

exciting stages!

Happy gardening,

Brian Voelker

President, Board of Directors

P.S. Supporting Botanica is easy! To see more about our plans for

the future garden, become a member or make a donation, visit our web

site at WaterfrontGardens.org.

LOCAL AGENCY MINDSALT CREATES LOGO FOR WATERFRONT BOTANICAL GARDENS

Working with local design agency Mindsalt, we’ve

developed a logo for the Waterfront Botanical Gardens.

We explored several concepts along the way, but

ultimately we found the design above to be the most

appealing and most representative of the gardens and

our organization as a whole.

The new logo is inspired by the Kentucky state flower,

the goldenrod (Solidago). The elegant stem connects

each of the stylized flower petals, celebrating how the

future botanical gardens will be a connector for our

community. The gardens will bring together individuals

and organizations, and will physically connect the

distinct neighborhoods of Frankfort Avenue and

Butchertown with River Road and Waterfront Park.

The logo also features a pronounced stem, which

mimics the primary pathway that ties together the

individual gardens that make up the Waterfront

Botanical Gardens. (You’ll see more of this design

feature in our Master Plan.) We hope you like our

new look!

PLANNED GIVING – A COMMITMENT TO THE FUTUREOne great way to support the Waterfront Botanical Gardens is to include Botanica in your estate plans. While

there are several different approaches, one of the simplest is to make a bequest by including a gift to Botanica

in your will. To see the impact that a planned gift can have, look no further than Helen Harrigan. Helen’s gift and

vision for the future set the Waterfront Botanical Gardens project in motion!

If you have any questions about planned giving, or if you would like to let us know that you’ve included Botanica in your future plans, please contact Kasey Maier at kmaier@waterfrontgardens.org or (502) 276-5404.

Design Overview

Over the last several months, the design team at

Perkins+Will has been diligently creating the structure

and feel of the Waterfront Botanical Gardens. The team

has studied the site in detail, worked to understand how

our site relates to adjacent neighborhoods and listened

to Botanica members and community stakeholders to

understand what we hope the gardens will be – all to

ensure the best possible Master Plan.

The resulting Master Plan has a unique site design that

features the right balance of structure and freedom in

the way guests will visit the gardens. A central spine

ties the gardens together, creating a primary pathway

that traverses the site – connecting the Visitors Center,

passing under a rose trellis and through a tree allée

and ending at a canopy overlook that provides views

of Beargrass Creek. Several pathways spin off the

central spine, offering access to different areas of the

gardens. This design maximizes the site’s existing tree

growth and allows us to maintain and embellish the

canopy around the outside of the site while preserving

a meadowlike environment in the center of the site,

accented by display gardens.

Visitors Center

Visitors to the garden will be greeted by its main

building, the Visitors Center. As they pass through

on their way to the gardens, they’ll find a restaurant

and gift shop, meeting and event space and the

administrative offices. The building will be designed to

meet the highest level of LEED Platinum® sustainability.

The extended roof will provide ample shade on the

south and west sides, offering shelter to those coming

and going from the gardens. To the east (on the

gardens side), the roofline will begin at ground level

and gently slope up to a rooftop terrace. The gently

rising roofline and planted roof will allow visitors to

ascend to the top of the structure, where they will be

afforded spectacular views of downtown and the river.

Water Filtration Garden

Just outside the Visitors Center, guests will find the

circular Water Filtration Garden. This feature will

collect “gray water” from the building and use plants

to clean the water as it passes from pool to pool. The

clean water from that garden will flow down waterfalls

through the Cascade Garden near the Visitors Center

entrance.

Children’s Garden

Massive seedpod sculptures will be the crown jewel of

the Children’s Garden, giving children – and adventurous

adults – the chance to climb inside, over and under

these stylized seedpods. At night, the seedpods will

be illuminated, turning them into iconic lanterns along

the River Road. A canopy walk and other activities will

provide unique ways to interact with the environment

while teaching kids about plants and nature.

Conservatory

The gardens will feature a conservatory, enabling

visitors to see plants that don’t typically grow in

our climate. Imagine wandering among trees from

the tropics, stopping to study an abundance of

orchids while being surrounded by the scent of

orange blossoms filling the air! Like all the structures

on our site, the conservatory will use the latest in

sustainable design techniques.

Education Pavilion

Much of the educational programming at the future

garden will be centered at the Educational Pavilion.

Visitors will see displays and hands-on activities

that help them learn about plants, nature, our

environment and the sustainable practices in use at

the gardens.

A Collection of Gardens

The site will be home to a variety of garden types.

An Edible Garden and Orchard will be situated next to

the Visitors Center. Along River Road, visitors will find

a Palisades Garden, inspired by the rocky cliffs found

in landscape throughout Kentucky, and a Japanese

Garden will present beauty from faraway lands. We

have also reserved unplanned space, allowing room

in the gardens for future collections.

UP FOR THE ADVENTURE OF A ROOF GARDEN? BY BOB HILL

oof gardens (sometimes called green

roofs) are useful, practical, attractive,

environmentally sound, energy-efficient,

fun to look at and fairly easy to grow and

maintain. It is for those very reasons that

the Waterfront Botanical Gardens will feature a roof

garden on the Visitors Center of its 23-acre complex at

River Road and Frankfort Avenue.

Although the concept of a roof garden sounds new,

roof gardens have actually been around since the 11th

century, when Egyptians used ox-drawn water wheels

to irrigate the roof garden of a 14-story building. In

modern times, roof gardens come in all sizes and

shapes depending on the structure and overall building

design. They feature everything from elevated living

rooms complete with potted plants, small trees and

furniture to carefully planted carpets of durable,

resourceful plants that will provide color, food and

insulation. Several great examples of roof gardens

can already be seen in Louisville at the American Life

& Accident Insurance Co. and above the 21c Museum

Hotel and the Frazier History Museum.

If you’re up for an adventure and want to try your hand

at a roof garden of your own, there are plenty of things

to consider. The secret to success comes in two words:

Plan ahead. Be sure your roof can support the weight of

the soil and planting material, and ensure that you will

have adequate drainage and protection.

Flat roofs work best and are the most easily planted.

Slanted roofs drain more quickly, but require some

protective edging to prevent the plants from sliding

off with the water. Begin with waterproof layers such

as a pond liner or damp-proof polyethylene to prevent

moisture and roots from tearing at your building and to

guarantee better drainage.

Plan on using a lightweight growing material, including

crushed brick or limestone chippings mixed with a

good growing medium, to aid in drainage.

Decide upfront which plants you will

use. Depending on the size and amount

of sunshine that goes with your rooftop

garden, the choices of plants are endless.

It’s always a good idea to think native

when planting a roof garden, as they are

more adapted to the local environment.

Succulents often are a great option,

because they require less soil and water

than larger vegetables or drought-tolerant

perennials. If you want to have even more

fun, think about creating a wildflower

roof garden in which you can incorporate

drought-tolerant grasses that are more

adaptable to higher elevations.

If you’ve got space – and good support –

you can raise perennials, ornamental shrubs

and even small trees. If space is an issue,

grow your beauties in containers. Some

people enjoy growing edible vegetables and fruits on

their roofs or raised patio areas. Good options include

lettuce, tomatoes, carrots, beets and even strawberries.

If you’re seeking a lower, tighter growth that will

add beauty while increasing the insulation value, try

installing low-growing sedums, tough wildflowers and

grasses. You may be surprised to learn that many cacti

grow very well here.

What are some of the best examples you’ve seen of

roof gardens? Let us know on our Facebook page. We

are still designing the roof garden for the Waterfront

Botanical Gardens. What would you like to see up

there? Stay tuned for the results.

BOTANICA ART & GARDEN 2014

On Sept. 6, Botanica hosted Art & Garden 2014, with

special guest Barbara Pierson of White Flower Farm

in Litchfield, Conn. Thirty-eight artists, seven speakers

and seven demonstrations made up the events of Art

& Garden, which was held at the Woman’s Club of

Louisville. The students of the Waldorf School were

a part of the event, with a musical performance and

student art for sale. Around 200 people attended the

events, including the Friday-night preview party, the

Saturday art show and sale and the day full of speakers.

Speaker topics included stylish raised beds and the

importance of honeybees. Thanks to all who supported

Art & Garden 2014, which was a successful fundraiser

for Botanica.
