Developing a plant palette
Starting to put together a plant palette for 5605. I started by considering the forms of the trees and what I wanted them to represent within the design. I chose ones which complimented my design theme, which is predominantly about merging the urban and rural sides of Cheltenham together. The trees are seen in a range of scenarios throughout the country and are very tolerant to pollution, which I think is an important part of educating people through landscape.
The perennials and shrubs are complimentary colours which have connotations of calmness, peace, and focus. Each of these plants has edible or medicinal components, which will contribute to a productive landscape.
