This is the story of the Recycled Garden of 2012 San Francisco Flower and Garden Show. It won the People's Choice award voted by the show's attendees, and the Best Garden Award voted by the fellow garden exhibitors. This is a book of pictures, telling the fascinating story of how this garden installation was created by Brent Sumner and a team of artists. The hardscape for the Recycled Garden is constructed and sculpted from recycled and found materials. Darjit, an earth friendly sculpting compound, is used to make the main sculpture: a 20 ft long dragon. Much of the garden is a hanging garden, suspended from a tower constructed with weathered wood and scrap metal. This book is a visual following of the artists as they bent, welded and sculpted their way to the 2012 San Francisco Flower and Garden Show, and in the process created the "bones" for a one-of-a-kind garden.
