Vectorworks Landmark 2009 Includes Monrovia Plant Database
COLUMBIA, MD,
Oct 2, 2008 - Nemetschek North America is pleased to announce that it has
partnered with Monrovia, the leading grower of premium ornamental plants, to
enhance the plant database in Vectorworks Landmark 2009. This long-awaited
addition has more than doubled the number of plants in the Vectorworks plant
database as well as improved the geographic coverage of plants in regions
such as Florida and California.
"We are excited to offer this new comprehensive plant database to
Vectorworks Landmark users," explains Darick DeHart, Nemetschek North
America's vertical products manager. "Clients are starting to ask for more
sustainable and native plant designs, and landscape architects and designers
will now have better resources for fulfilling this request."
Plant information in the database includes: persistence, hardiness zone,
typical size, leaf and flower characteristics, typical use, tolerance, and
other general information. In addition, the database integrates seamlessly
with online industry-standard sources for plant images and additional
information. The database information is used to create plant lists, take
off sheets, planting plans, and take-home sheets.
As Monrovia is a national plant supplier, Vectorworks Landmark users will
have the added comfort of knowing that when they choose a plant, they'll
definitely be able to source it.
"It's a great opportunity for those premiere landscape designers and
architects who want to easily specify Monrovia plants," said Andrea
Gutierrez, director of online marketing for Monrovia.
