On
a warm Sunday morning, Ute Baum, landscape architect is in the "entertaining"
section of her garden. Ute designed her garden around the principles
of an outdoor room with walls and ceiling. The background picture
on this page is the leopard plant Ligularia tussilaginea, Ute's
favorite. |

Her
"walls" are established and she is working on her ceiling.
Ute slips through a gap in the trellis of her garden - the trellis
is covered with Guinea Gold Vine (Hibbertia scandens) to
show the garden focal point... |

A
bird bath filled with marbles and a brilliant blue gazing ball. Ute
says that her garden is an oasis for her and she likes just sitting
and reading or looking at it from the inside of her home. Ute has
been gardening her whole life,"As a child it was more of a necessity
to grow vegetables." Ute did not want her garden to look formal,
"I want to have nature overpower me...I want my garden to be
more freeform and natural looking." |

Ute
admires form and the "found object". Note the composition
of a succulent in a cement urn with a discarded chair in a dry, shady
corner. |
