Looks newly set up and under developed. Hardscape looks good but needs softening with more plants.
This display offers an interesting variety of plants with an emphasis on color. There is great consistency of tone between hardscape elements, which feel new and without the passage of time present. Many species appear to be in good health, with some species suffering in the emergent portion, like the lower leftmost Hygrophila Pinnatifida. Certain areas of the moss wall would benefit from trimming to reduce browning. The transition from submerged to emergent is sudden regarding plants, but is smoothly executed with hardscape. Plant density in the display’s marginal area should be increased. Overall, an attractive display that only lacks overall integration.
