Greetings from the ‘Antipodes’..

What a great idea this whole projec t… I have waded through quite a lot of
the correspondence and almost drowned a couple of times …

Isn’t all the cleverness and wordiness on the site a bit much? These aren’t
qualities in themselves that we need after all so much as visual imagination, determination and green fingers. How to make the presentation more gestural and powerful?”

So many words leads me to think that maybe perhaps (my ‘informal’
submission!) the ‘voids’ between the path layout (love em) might consist of
ALL the ‘’high falutin’ words lying prostrate atop some gravely material!
(would Hamilton Findlay approve?!)

Or perhaps ‘plantsmanship’ might take the form of all the photographs taken
of this area’s past glories … again prostrate ‘cut and pasted’ to fill the
‘voids’… maybe a few ‘tufts’ of ‘local’ pasture grasses and garden weeds
emerging from all that ‘gloss’!

Or just maybe a ‘pure’ forest of ‘Bronze fennel’ or some white trunked Sp of
Tree to appease those who garden by plants …

I suggest whatever concept is arrived at it remain for say 3 years and the
ball will roll once again …
