UMC

In the last 18 months or so, Tom's Tree Place and Patterned Concrete of Lubbock have been making a name for themselves at UMC. Starting on the south side you might want to check out the new TTU Softball Building. Designed by Parkhill, Smith and Cooper's Brent Clifford and installed by Tom's, Texas Tech wanted a beautiful and unique way to deal with drainage.

From there, head east to the ACS Hope Lodge designed by our very own Alex Scarborough.

Lastly, head north and you will find UMC'S east tower expansion project. Over the last year we have been a part of UMC'S on going effort in development and beautification. -Karen

Fun Facts

When you think of Tom's Tree Place what do you think of? Trees maybe, or luscious landscapes and friendly customer service? Well we have all those things at Tom's. but did you know that we do all kinds of paving also? Yes! Concrete, patterned concrete, flagstone and of course brick paving. Another fun fact about Toms? All of our landscape architects and designers graduated from Texas Tech University! We love working around the university and anytime we can mix a bit of our red raider pride into a landscape we do it. Recently we were able to do just that! On a problem corner down Glenna Goodacre Blvd some our skilled brick layers worked in a double t right in the walkway. So if you are ever having a cup of coffee at Starbucks or walking down by Chipolte see if you can find our new piece of Red Raider pride! - Karen

Texas Linden Tree

American basswood, or Linden tree (Tilia americana) is a large growing tree found from Maine to Florida and from the Atlantic to the Rocky mountains. A small disjunct population can be found in Central Texas, more specifically Bandera county.

Baxter Adams has grown seedlings from native Linden stands in Bandera county. We have a group of 20 of these trees in 5 gallon buckets. They are a limited supply and should be fun to grow in West Texas. This is a rare and wonderful opportunity to get one of these trees.
