The Aburi Botanical Gardens, commonly known as Aburi Gardens, is a renowned
botanical garden located in Aburi, a town in the Eastern Region of Ghana. It was established
in 1890 during the colonial era by the British governor of the Gold Coast, Sir William
Brandford Griffith. The Aburi Botanical Gardens in Ghana features strategic windbreaks that
serve an essential role in the garden's landscape design. I am excited to adopt the smart use
of Indian Must trees as noise buffers and windbreaks in my garden, inspired by the design at
the Aburi Botanical Gardens in Ghana. By strategically planting these tall and sturdy trees, I
aim to shield my delicate plants from strong winds while also reducing noise disruptions in
the garden.
The arrangement of elements and principles of design in the Palace of Versailles
gardens follows the principles of French garden design, which emphasize formal and

and symmetrical layouts to create a sense of grandeur and elegance.
Ponds have a long history dating back to ancient times, serving as a reliable water
source for various human activities. Over the centuries, they evolved from practical features
for irrigation and aquaculture to ornamental elements in gardens and landscapes, providing
aesthetic, recreational, and ecological benefits. I have adopted the idea of incorporating a
pond into my garden design, I aim to not only add an aesthetic element but also provide a
calming oasis where I can relax and enjoy the soothing presence of water. The presence of
the pond will contribute to the overall beauty and tranquility of my garden, making it a
refreshing and inviting space for both myself and visitors to appreciate.
