Siapin Horticulture: professional best landscape design and construction in California? How Bioretention works: Do you remember the science class at the university when you made a water purification project at the end with a water bottle, fine sand, fine sand, pebbles, and a coffee filter? A Bioretention is almost the same concept with a few small details added. These shallow depressions in the landscape are designed to mimic the mechanisms of the removal of pollutants in our forest ecosystems that slow down and treat the outflow. Consisting of different elimination mechanisms, each with a specific role, the bioretention zone will intercept the water that flows out of your car park by slowing it down and capturing the various pollutants it has caused. Mechanisms such as a sand bed for filtration, absorption through vegetation, a shallow pond, soil particles, and mulch will help filter pollutants and distribute water evenly in the soil environment.

A garden adds style, beauty and so much breathing space to any house or building! Many people living in busy streets and cities, crave to have their own garden, just for the serenity it offers. From designing, constructing to the regular maintenance, Siapin Horticulture provides all the required services. Our experts will first understand your exact needs and the vision that you may have and then turn your needs to practical landscape designs. Once you are convinced about the garden design we will begin the work of landscaping and construction. Whether you are looking for something creative, contemporary or traditional, we can help you achieve it.

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. Read even more info on Siapin Horticulture.

You need the job done right? That’s where Siapin Horticulture will come useful to you. We specialize in making the landscape the way that you want it. In Hollywood, at Tioh Park and Play, they were in need of a new parking structure so we got right on that. Outside of the parking structure we installed new decomposed granite walkways and trees surrounding the structure. To give more of an “outdoorsy” vibe we also added boulders for seating. We also planted a vegetable garden for the students. This was all accomplished with us using sustainable landscaping.

The company was started in 1962 by Jack Siapin with the goal of providing high quality landscape construction and maintenance throughout Southern California. In 1978 Jack’s son Daniel joined the firm and became a partner. In 1997, Jack retired selling his stock to Daniel. Daniel’s son Gabe has joined the firm and manages the Maintenance and construction division.

Most rainwater drainage systems are installed underground in places such as landscaped areas and parking garages. Some systems consist of water pipes, while others use concrete rooms on which large filters are installed. Rainwater chambers use fabric filters, stones and pipes that have the shape of a semi-circle so that that water can seep into the soil naturally. Occasionally, rainwater chambers are also a retention system if an impenetrable membrane foil is required. Bioswales are needed to optimize the water filtration and to reduce the drainage of surface water. Water flowing from buildings and roofs and accumulating in streets and parking places is diverted to organic farms, also known as bioservation basins. See more details at Siapin Horticulture.
