In 1985 before the merger that created the Texas Nursery & Landscape Association (TNLA), the Texas Association of Nurserymen(TAN) chose to build a building that would house the Association.  Since that time it has been the priority of both the TAN and TNLA Board of Directors to assure that the office building is kept in good shape and represents the image of the industry.  Since the building was built the drawing of the building has been featured on the Association’s letterhead and note cards.  The landscape for the building was originally developed by a landscape architect out of the Fort Worth area.  It has been maintained by a local landscape contractor with the assistance of a part time landscape staff person employed by TNLA.  In order to continue to showcase the best the industry has to offer, it is time to upgrade the landscape of the building.  The current Board of Directors has requested that all landscape professionals who are members of the Association be provided the opportunity to submit a proposal for the redesign.  This would be done on a gratis basis with recognition given to the designer(s) who are chosen as the finalist(s).

We hope that the design exemplifies the industry today.  Installation of the landscape will be coordinated after the design has been chosen.  All efforts will be made to have the landscape installed by TCLP, licensed irrigators, ICPI, NCMA certified individuals and firms.
