Pruned
The screenshotEncarta Dictionary defines "to prune" as "to cut branches away from a plant to encourage fuller growth." And encouraged growth is exactly what you get on this lush, enthusiastic blog on landscape architecture. Its creator, Alexander Trevi, clearly knows how to tend his online garden. Under his careful green thumb, wind tunnels, precision farming, sunken monuments, and Martian dust devils blow, race, and settle just beautifully. On any day, you may encounter musings on Dubai, thoughts on the possibility of a bioengineered zoo in Toronto, or a post "all atwitter" over Chicago's old main post office becoming an indoor cemetery. We love wandering through Pruned's maze of topics and images, and we're not the only ones. In April, one reader left a comment that just skirted incoherence, but still managed to express the pleasures of wandering through this site: "Discovering universe wonder through your site, never stop to amaze me. Those are magnificat findings!" (in Design Arts)
