Aquatic Plants: Fontinalis antipyretica, Pogostemon helferi, Glossostigma elatinoides
Evaluation: The first bronze-prize winner is from China. The creator used uniquely shaped stones and expressed famous karst landscape of Guilin. The moss attached on the stones looks natural, but the plants in the foreground do not look nice. Many plants with different leaf shapes were planted in small amounts, which 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.
