April is World Landscape Architecture Month! Landscape Architects effectively communicate a landscape design’s goals and solutions through a responsive design approach. Their creative and innovative landscapes result in successful spaces that enhance our communities.

To celebrate #WLAM, we are featuring the UF Health Shands Garden of Hope. The garden, centered between the UF Health Neuromedicine Hospital and UF Health Shands Cancer Hospital, provides patients, visitors, and healthcare workers relief to the senses through its use of water, sunlight and natural foliage. As visitors stroll past benches, trees and a lake, they have time to pause, reflect and heal.
