When the Manning family planned a high-profile press conference to announce their partnership with Children’s Hospital in New Orleans, an unexpected “100-year” snowstorm blanketed the city in over a foot of snow. The extreme weather severely damaged the hospital’s landscape, putting the planned event at risk. With time of the essence, Mullin Landscape was brought in to completely transform the outdoor environment, ensuring the facility would be presentation-ready in time for national media attention.
In under 10 working days, Mullin’s team redesigned, sourced, and installed a new landscape surrounding the hospital. This comprehensive effort included replacing damaged plantings, updating hardscape signage, and retrofitting the irrigation system to support the new design. Through efficient project management and close coordination with vendors, the team delivered the final result two days ahead of schedule. The Manning family and Children’s Hospital leadership were thrilled with the transformation, and the event proceeded with a revitalized, welcoming backdrop that reflected the significance of the partnership.
