Evaluation:
The first Bronze prize winner is from China. The creator used unique shape stones and expressed famous karst landscape of “Guilin.” The moss attached on the stones look natural, but the plants in the foreground do not look nice. Many plants with different leaf shapes were planted in small amount, gave an impression of lacking unity. Those plants seem to be just planted and not grown yet. The layout may become disorganized when all those plants are fully grown. The pebble size in foreground seems too big, giving a rough impression to the layout.
