Be part of the solution by opening up the conversation about mental health.

Today isn’t the only day to ask “R U OK?” - but it’s an important reminder to pause and check in with your mates.

Taking a moment to genuinely ask how someone is really doing can make a world of difference. We all have mental health, and sometimes simply opening the door to a conversation is the first step toward changing a life.

LQ members, check your inbox for tips, tools and support to help you look out for your mates.

Thank you to the team at ruokanyday for the awareness and support tools available via ruok.org.au

LQ EDUCATION PROGRAM | BUILDING THRIVING LANDSCAPES FROM GROUND UP: THE ROLE OF SOIL HEALTH

As part of the LQ Education Program at the recent Greenscapes Expo, Peter Farquharson, Director of Plant of Health, presented this session, bringing the focus back to where every successful landscape begins — the soil beneath our feet.

Peter explored the relationship between soil biology, chemistry and physical structure, and how each can influence plant establishment, growth, resilience and long-term performance.

For landscape contractors, designers and maintenance professionals, the session provided practical insights into assessing and improving soil health, reducing preventable plant failures and creating landscapes that continue to perform well beyond installation.

The key message was a simple but important one: better soil management supports stronger plants, reduced maintenance, happier clients and better landscape outcomes.

Thank you to Peter for sharing his knowledge and practical insights with our industry.

LQ is proud to bring members an Education Program focused on the topics that matter to our industry — combining practical knowledge with insights that can be taken straight back into the workplace.

Drawing on his experience coaching landscape businesses, John shared what he is seeing work across the industry to grow sales and profitability, retain good people, build stronger team cultures and attract new team members. From leadership, money and quoting to project management, sales, marketing and team, the session covered the key areas business owners need to keep an eye on — with plenty of practical tips, strategies and reminders of what they may already be doing well.

PROUD MEMBER HIGHLIGHT | Evolve Environmental Solutions
From a degraded stormwater corridor to a functioning wetland and thriving habitat — the Providence Southern Wetlands project demonstrates the scale and skill behind environmental landscape construction.

Landscape Queensland Proud Member Evolve Environmental Solutions delivered extensive rehabilitation works across the site, including more than 172,000 native plants, 400 semi-advanced trees, 11,500m² of coir mesh, 2,250m³ of forest mulch and 150 fauna habitat zones.

Working around live waterways and constructed sediment basins, the team combined erosion control, wetland and riparian planting and habitat construction, while coordinating with civil and stormwater works. Significant rainfall and flash flooding added to the challenge, requiring damaged batters to be reworked and erosion controls reinstated as conditions changed.

What was delivered is a landscape designed to do much more than look good. Benefits extended to improving water quality, supporting biodiversity and creating valuable green space within the growing Ripley Valley community.

Evolve Environmental Solutions have crafted a great example of the important role LQ Members play in constructing and restoring Queensland’s natural environments.

LQ EDUCATION PROGRAM | AUSTRALIAN INSTITUTE OF HORTICULTURE SESSIONS

As part of the LQ Education Program at the recent Greenscapes Expo, presenters from the Australian Institute of Horticulture (AIH) brought a strong horticultural focus to the conversation. Including…

Practical Plant & Soil Health for Better Gardens, Better Landscapes & Better Outcomes | Presented by Annette Irish, explored the relationship between soil health, plant performance and long-term landscape success. Educating attendees on the warning signs that can be overlooked in everyday landscape construction and maintenance, and how an understanding what is happening below ground can help prevent plant decline and create healthier, more resilient landscapes.

The Future Voices of Horticulture | Ash Walker, James Feez and Kira Platt-Behrens shared their own journeys into horticulture and highlighted just how diverse the career pathways within the industry can be. Exploring opportunities available to emerging horticulturists, including AIH scholarships and international programs such as the Global Footprints Scholarship they encouraged the next generation to make connections, keep learning and explore where a career in horticulture can take them.

The Importance of Increasing Biodiversity to Our Landscapes, Gardens, Nurseries & Garden Centres | Landscape Architect and Horticultural Consultant Arno King turned the conversation to biodiversity and the important role our industry can play in increasing the diversity of plants used across our landscapes. Arno explored why our planting palette is narrowing, the impacts of declining botanical diversity, and how the industry can increase biodiversity through plant selection, specification, cultivation and sales.

Thank you to Annette, Ash, James, Kira and Arno, and to the Australian Institute of Horticulture for bringing their knowledge, experience and perspectives to the LQ Education Program.

LQ EDUCATION PROGRAM | TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE SESSIONS

The LQ Education Program at the Greenscapes Expo, included sessions that support better landscape construction and better outcomes on site:

Concrete in the Landscape: From Mix Design to Finished Surface | Gregory van Rooyen from BG&E took attendees through the fundamentals of working with concrete in the landscape. Including mix design, joints and finishes, cracking and cost control to how decisions made at specification and construction stage can impact the finished product and its long-term performance.

When Walls Fail: Engineering Principles for Safer Retaining Wall Construction | With 42 years of Queensland project experience, civil and structural engineer Ching Meng Tan unpacked why retaining walls fail and the engineering and compliance principles contractors need to understand. Using real Queensland examples, they explored drainage, footings, surcharge loading and common costly mistakes.

Irrigation Workshop: Understanding What Happens When Water Leaves the Pipe | Stuart Alexander from Irrigation Australia brought irrigation into the practical mix, looking beyond the pipe to build a better understanding of how water behaves once it reaches the landscape and what that means for effective irrigation outcomes.

Wood That Endures: Everything You Have Learnt So Far Is Wrong | Edgar (Ted) Stubbersfield, International External Timber Design Consultant, challenged long-held assumptions about external timber. Ted highlighted the importance of careful design, detailed drawings and getting the fundamentals right to avoid common problems and achieve timber structures that endure.

Four different topics, but a common focus of providing landscape professionals practical knowledge to make more informed decisions, reduce avoidable problems and deliver better outcomes on the ground. Thank you to Gregory, Ching Meng Tan, Stuart and Ted for sharing their technical expertise and experience with our industry.
