Resumen

En una época de extinción masiva y de cambio climático, cada planta importa en el diseño de un jardín urbano. Para mí, como diseñador de jardines, eso significa usar plantas nativas en sincronía con la fauna local. La esperanza es que al utilizar plantas que las criaturas reconozcan se ayude, en algunos casos, a que la fauna y la flora se adapten a los cambios. Mis diseños intentan abarcar la pradera salvaje, en su mayoría desaparecida, y las inquietudes estéticas tradicionales de los residentes urbanos. A medida que volvemos a incluir en nuestras vidas lo salvaje a través de los cinco sentidos, comenzamos a apreciar a las otras especies y, posteriormente, puede que empecemos a defenderlas y defender su bienestar -- ya que nuestro bienestar está vinculado a las plantas, aves, insectos, arañas, y muchos otros.
