ASLA.org has an interesting postulation about fountain features called “The Dirt: Fountain-Dread?”
This article made me think of the episode of AB FAB where Saffy wants to put a water feature in their backyard, and the landscape architect spends the whole time poo-pooing it. Though its just a sit come there is a real kernel of truth there, fountains structured gardens and other hallmarks of the 19th century landed gentry estates have become a fixture in suburban tract house development. One has to wonder, in 50 years will mini zoo’s and amusement parks find their way into the American backyard?
