I thought that far too much time was spent on architecture
(especially the
Luis Barragan stuff - how many shocking pink walls can you look
at?), and far too little time on plants.

I sympathise with your view but at the same time, it was relevant to
include
them, I think. But less time being spent on them, I do agree with.
However, the point surely, was the different things a garden mean to
different people in various parts of the world?



Quite!

does a garden need to have plants in it?

If it doesn't it's a just a type of organised builder's yard.

It's the wrong question, anyway. The right question is "Should a garden
have anything other than plants in it?"
