The San Francisco landscape designer is known for her healing gardens (at hospitals around the country). Her designs reflect a deep exploration of each garden's relationship to the people for whom it is intended and the surroundings in which it is found. Her site offers a portfolio of work without any editorializing (but you can read her philosophy there). This garden, described only as 'Narducci' features rusted steel panels set at angles on a gravel plain, surrounded by roses, creating a partial maze. A citrus tree is sunk into a hole in the ground. Somewhere there is a quince tree. Flat panels of turf and gravel are punctuated with light-textured trees. Is it desolate or soothing?
