Homes and gardens in Dapodi

Dapodi's homes are spread across Dapodi gaon, Dapodi bazar, Phugewadi, Kundan Nagar and Ganesh Nagar: older houses and small buildings in the gaon and bazar, and apartment societies in the newer nagars. Gardens are mostly terraces, balconies and the compounds of societies and institutions.

Between two rivers

With the Pavana and Mula on two sides, parts of Dapodi sit on low ground that stays wet after monsoon storms. Gardens here need drainage before plants: raised beds, a gravel layer under pots on terraces, and a soak pit for low corners of a compound.

In the dry months the picture flips, and with Pimpri-Chinchwad's alternate-day water supply the reliable way to water is drip on a timer from storage.

Society and institution compounds

Societies and institutions along the highway have boundary planting that takes the dust of heavy traffic. Tough shrubs such as kaner, ixora, duranta and bougainvillea, washed down regularly, hold up best. We maintain these compounds on annual contracts with gardeners deployed on site and a monthly report.

Terraces in the gaon

The older houses in Dapodi gaon and bazar often have a flat roof that can carry a small kitchen garden in grow bags: tomato, chilli, methi and palak, with tulsi and mogra in pots, all on a drip line from the tank.
