Abstract:

Form follows function, a phrase associated with design, can be associated with gardening as well. Examples of conditions that will affect the form of the plant are amount and quality of light, water, and soil nutrients. Such factors can also impact the forms noted by the author: foundation planting, specimen plant, color or fragrance, or fun. Other factors that may impact form are personal preference and the relationship of one plant to another.
