This is so incongrous, I can't tell what I am looking at, plants in the sun underground.......:-)

Never been a huge fan of concept gardens but find this intriguing and in the right setting would look stunning.

Are they under glass?

~No the plants are sunken into a mirorred space but it is open to the elements!

Do you think the mirrors keep them warmer..is this a planting concept for plants that need more heat perhaps?

~ i think it was to maximise the light and give the impression of more flowers than there actually were~

Hmmmm..well I would only consider it for growing something that needs more warmth..and more light..cannot envision it as a nice garden design as it seems a bit clinical. I suppose it would depend on where you are and what you are trying to do with it...
