ECOLOGY OF PLACE for Phil Biaggi
A garden designed for Cornerstone Gardens in Sonoma focusing on the question of place and how it relates to sustainability. It is about the ecology of the site as it once was symbolized by recreated wetlands, oyster shell mulch, and the runnel bordering the pathway signifying the water that once flowed in from San Pablo Bay; the present represented by sculptural vineyards; future possibilities symbolized by the sculptural tree- inspired by the California Buckeye (created by Regan Gentry from New Zealand), restored native plantings and wetlands.
