The feature that stood out the most to me within the Garden of Australian Dreams was the small area in which the Eucalyptus Ghost Gums were located. Eucalyptus trees are a classic part of the Australian landscape and when I think of Australia, I think of gum trees and wide open spaces.
I think trees and nature are beautiful to look at, so I think that’s basically why this feature appealed to me the most. Their colours, textures and overall stature are striking.
The trees represent the Australian bushland, and are as said above, a characteristic part of Australia. I think Richard Weller would have included the trees in the GOAD because they speak for themselves, signifying Australia and its bushland.
The GOAD would be considered a postmodern landscape architecture because it is original and uses many different mediums in its overall design. It is a creative embodiment made for the present.
