With plantings placed higher than terrace level, the perceived scale of the visitor is diminished. The use of large-foliaged plants such as bear’s breech (Acanthus mollis, USDA zones 7 to 9), Spotty Dotty Chinese mayapple (Podophyllum ‘Spotty Dotty’, zones 6 to 9) and various hostas (Hosta cvs, zones 3 to 9) reinforces this perceived scale and, ultimately, creates a child-like vibe that rekindles pleasant memories.
