Retornar à origem às margens de um lago natural é a proposta de Betty Ibañez da CASACOR Bolívia. Sua criação decorre da ideia de conectar o ser humano com a natureza e preservar a flora e a fauna do entorno. O profissional conseguiu um espelho de água livre de produtos químicos, com peixes se movendo entre a areia e as pedras, proporcionando um refúgio natural. Ele fundiu colunas de plantas com cestas tecidas para contemplação de diferentes escalas. O local é complementado com móveis feitos de tecidos, conseguindo um espaço rústico onde a origem dos materiais é reavaliada. (Alvaro Mier/CASACOR)
The gardens change constantly as the seasons progress. Changes in temperature, light, humidity, and flowering periods transform the appearance of species and directly influence the dynamics of outdoor areas. Therefore, gardens require planning that considers not only aesthetics, but also climate adaptation and visual continuity.

More than creating a beautiful garden during a specific period of the year, the goal is to build compositions that remain interesting at different times. The combination of permanent foliage, seasonal species and plants adapted to the local climate helps create more balanced, resilient landscapes that are connected to natural cycles.
Each season affects plant development and garden maintenance needs in a different way.
In spring, gardens usually show faster growth and a longer flowering period. It is a favorable time for ornamental species such as azaleas, lavenders, daisies and begonias, in addition to being an important period for light pruning and fertilization.
Summer requires greater attention to irrigation and sun exposure. Species resistant to intense heat, such as lantana, hibiscus and aromatic plants, tend to perform better. It is also important to protect the soil with vegetation cover to conserve moisture.
During autumn, plant growth slows down and the garden goes through a smoother visual transition. Foliage with varied tones stands out, as do ornamental species such as lily, orchid, ivies and succulents. It is also an important period for maintenance pruning and preparing the soil for the colder months.
In winter, gardens require species more resistant to low temperatures and reduced light. Camellias, pansies, chrysanthemum and tulip help maintain structure and volume even during dormancy periods of other plants.
The balance of gardens for each season depends on combining permanent plants and species with different seasonal cycles. Structural foliage works as the base of landscaping, ensuring visual continuity even in periods of less flowering. Swiss cheese plants, pacovás, phormiums and clusias help build volume and permanence throughout the year.

Around this main structure, species that bloom at alternating times come in. This variation allows the garden to always be in transformation without appearing empty in certain periods. In addition, prioritizing plants adapted to the region's climate reduces excessive maintenance and favors healthier landscaping development.

In addition to species selection, some care helps gardens for each season respond better to changes in temperature, light and humidity throughout the year. These include:
Plants naturally adapted to the region usually require less maintenance and show greater resistance to climate variations. This reduces water stress, seasonal losses and the need for constant interventions.
Pine bark, dry leaves and other covers help conserve moisture, protect roots and reduce thermal impacts. This layer also contributes to soil balance during periods of intense heat or more severe cold.

Trees, pergolas and larger species help protect more sensitive plants from excessive exposure to the sun or strong winds. This distribution creates natural microclimates within the garden.
Water needs change throughout the year. In summer, irrigation tends to be more frequent, while in winter excess water can harm some species. Automated systems help to better control this balance.
