Bernard Trainor. Australian-born landscape designer Bernard Trainor uses the tools of both the naturalist and the architect to create stunning large-scale gardens that unfold over many acres. Across airy hilltops, craggy seasides, and other one-of-a-kind tracts, Trainor applies simple, understated frames to rugged natural panoramas, the better to bring them into focus.

Carol Bornstein. Director of the Nature Gardens at the Natural History Museum of Los Angles County.  Throughout her career, Carol has championed the landscape value of California’s native plants and the benefits of designing gardens in harmony with nature.
