Love it. <br /><br />I like the circle designs or motifs in the first garden. Even in a wild garden, I think you can have some structure, but I'm like most gardeners...I plant as I go and design the same way. I'd like to add some circles to my garden somehow, maybe at an intersection of these paths I'm making.

Still I can see how the idea could be used other ways, for instance to let the sedges cascade over a low wall. Nice plantings in both gardens.Jameshttp://soenyun.com/Blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497277770771473008.post-19291895866558733912011-06-25T21:08:16.146-07:002011-06-25T21:08:16.146-07:00Wow, those gardens are so interesting!

A structured, perfectly planned, native garden doesn't seem quite as, well, 'native' to me. I do realize though that aesthetic isn't for everyone. As we gradually abolish the weeds, looking at how plants naturally grow here, Calochortus or Iris popping up through Monkey Flowers, or Asters growing in the middle of native roses, is just how nature planned most of our garden...that wild and unkempt look is rather growing on me. Nature designed most of the native gardens here, and who am I to argue? ;)Curbstone Valley Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714297348566721344noreply@blogger.com
