Here is how the project went:
The project went well overall. Observing the many plants in all the sections of the Sensory Garden was very fun and hands-on. It was fascinating for our group to be able to find out how plants are about to impact our senses. Repairing all the different parts of the garden was hard work but rewarding nonetheless.
Through this project I/we learned:
The Sensory Garden has taught me how different plants adapt to their surroundings. The variety of adaptations in the Sensory Garden shows the wide range of ways plants change. We also learned more about our own senses and how all of them are able to help us observe the world around us.
What I/we might change:
Hopefully, as we refurbish our Sensory Garden we are able to add and expand each section. Once we repair the various problems plaguing our garden, we will make sure to weed on a schedule and do general maintenance.
My/our favorite part of this project was:
We decided our favorite part of doing this project was completing it and seeing the fruits of our labor. We enjoyed the intense feeling of satisfaction we all felt when we saw the garden come together. Exploring our senses through the garden has been very rewarding.

For those interested in repairing gardens and fixing up flaws you need to make sure to keep the garden and plants watered and healthy. Ensuring your plants are properly watered is vital to the plant’s health.
