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

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 [email protected] 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.
