Summary/Abstract: What is a garden? What is reflected in gardens? What curriculum is refreshed, renewed and repeated in them? How is culture represented in and through this space of bounded nature? The paper considers these questions as it presents in parallel and interacting columns an historical review of a selection of gardens alongside meditations and marginalia that speak the unspoken cultural curriculum grown with and in them.
