Arbor Lakes Landscape Committee Update: Fresh Looks, Bright Ideas & Holiday Cheer!

The Landscape Committee kicked off November with a productive walk-through and a clear vision for keeping Arbor Lakes looking its best! After reviewing the community grounds, we identified several units whose walkway junipers are ready for removal. On the Court, this includes units 1209, 1220, and 1240, and on the Lane, units 1047, 1063, 1068, 1079, 1095, 1099, 1104, 1132, and 1136.

This list has been passed along to the HOA Board so they can coordinate with our landscaper—and we’ve recommended getting these updates underway as soon as possible to keep the community neat, safe, and welcoming.

Looking ahead, we’ve also suggested pruning the oak trees in early 2026. This will help our lawns soak up more sunshine and nutrients, giving the grass a chance to grow lush and healthy. A little trim now means a greener, happier landscape later!

Meanwhile, the Garden Club bloomed into action with its very first session! Members brainstormed exciting ideas for future events and community projects. They’re exploring the possibility of inviting a guest speaker from the Ormond Beach Garden Club to share expert insights, as well as planning educational sessions on seasonal flower care. There’s also talk of refreshing the gazebo area and giving the Arbor Lakes sign landscaping a cheerful makeover.

Stay tuned—event dates and details will be announced soon. Everyone is welcome to join in, learn, collaborate, and show off those green thumbs!

From all of us on the Landscape Committee: Happy Holidays, Arbor Lakes!

Here’s to a beautiful season and an even more beautiful community!
