Great gardeners are artists as far as I'm concerned, sculpting with living material and painting with fleeting color. It's undeniably the case that piet ouldof is the finest of artists. I love his philosophy, that gardens are the transition between wildness and civilization and as such, should express elements of both within them. His work makes my heart sing, the plant materials he uses, the color palettes he creates and the amazing compositions he constructs. Amazing work, pure and simple!
