Why? Because the Soviet Union built vertically, providing public housing for all, while leaving ample space for stunning public parks, sports fields, and gardens throughout the city — something that is simply inconceivable in the dystopian realities of individual homeownership. https://t.co/BX9bKckV6i pic.twitter.com/3HvsRGTqxJ

The Chelsea Australian Garden (in Olinda) has opened

"In 2013, the ‘Australian Garden’, created by Landscape Designer Phillip Johnson, Horticulturalist Wes Fleming and the Trailfinders Team, was the first Australian entry to win Gold and Best in Show at the prestigious Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Chelsea Flower Show in London.
Ten years later, Phillip Johnson has re-created his award-winning Australian Garden in the Dandenong Ranges Botanic Garden in Olinda, on Wurundjeri Country.
The new garden is over 20 times the size of the original Chelsea Flower Show build, converting a section of the former Olinda Golf Course into a stunning botanic garden, supporting biodiversity and habitat creation in the area.
The garden features 15,000 plants from over 400 native Australian species, and includes rare and endangered species such as the Wollemi Pine (Wollemia nobilis), which is listed as critically endangered under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cth).
It showcases sustainable and water-wise design, including an integrated bushfire protection system, solar power and the clever use of recycled and reclaimed materials, such as seating which was lovingly crafted from the Dandenong Ranges storm recovery program.
It also promotes and supports biodiversity through the creation of important native habitats for native plants and animals. This will encourage wildlife such as birds, bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, which are so important for the environment."

Your #garden should be a multilayer #food #forest, says #RHS horticulturist | #Gardens | The Guardian
There is an odd mindset in certain people in the #UK of gardens being ornaments rather than living environments.

In today's New York Times a Homeowner Association tried to force a Maryland couple with a native garden to change to a tidy lawn. The complaint was that their garden was "attracting rodents, deer, snakes and bats, and that they were planting shrubs and bushes in no particular order." Yes, in no particular order!
Legal proceedings ensued and there's now a state law forbidding homeowner associations from banning eco-friendly gardens.

Parks and gardens are time consuming products for those with inertia to have environments of experience.
