I just do not get it...I enjoyed the planting and loved the building but it grates conceptually.Was it a deliberate contrast between an enclosed space and an open space? Cloisters by definition are secluded and private and prairie planting (or steppe or naturalistic meadow planting however you wish to define it) belongs to the open, treeless plains and fields.
