Photograph of a gazebo at the Fuller Garden in the Fort Worth Botanic Garden. The gazebo sits prominently in the background behind a large, metal floral arch that contains pink flower beds and dense vining leaves. The flower arch sits elevated on a wall of stone bricks, under which there is a bed of shrubs and plants bordered by a shorter stone brick wall and a stone footpath. Shrubs and short trees flank the gazebo.

Photograph of a gathering in the Leonard Courtyard at the Fort Worth Botanic Garden. The courtyard is filled with round tables with pink fabric tablecloths, decorative flower pots, and adjoining white chairs, some occupied by people. Other individuals are standing up or walking in between the tables. An elevated concrete flower bed with purple, pink, and white flowers is visible in the foreground, while the Garden Center and its veranda are in the background.

Photograph of waterfalls in the Fort Worth Botanic Garden. The cascades are built on tiers, one higher than the other, flowing out from a pond along the top from the image into a lower level lined with walls made of flat boulders. This flat section leads to a second waterfall into a smaller pond below.

Photograph of a corner of the wooden frame of the Karesansui Dry Landscape Garden under construction in the Japanese Garden at the Fort Worth Botanic Garden, built on multiple short round concrete stilts. One side has not yet been fully built, with numerous exposed joints in the structure at left. Two saw horses rest near the dry garden's base, while pieces of lumber are scattered under and around the frame.

Photograph of the base of the Karesansui Dry Landscape Garden under construction at the Fort Worth Japanese Garden, which consists of a rectangular enclosure of concrete stilts stuck into the ground. Numerous trenches have been dug around the concrete stilts, which have steel wires projecting out from them, to be used by the wooden frame to be built on it. Several workers walk around the base, and a white truck is visible parked behind the dry garden at right.

Photograph of the enclosure of the Karesansui Dry Landscape Garden under construction at the Fort Worth Japanese Garden. The enclosure, built on short round concrete stilts, has a completed frame, with narrow wooden strips used for parts of the outside wall of the enclosure. The ceiling and several portions of the outside wall remain incomplete. The dry garden's boulders are visible in the garden itself, as well as a tall power pole.

Photograph of the base of the Karesansui Dry Landscape Garden under construction at the Fort Worth Japanese Garden, which consists of a rectangular enclosure of concrete stilts stuck into the ground. Wooden planks have been laid across pairs of stilts, each holding joints for wooden ribs to be laid in between. Several wires are laid across the dry garden's gravel space.

Photograph of construction of the Karesansui Dry Landscape Garden at the Fort Worth Japanese Garden. Workers dig trenches with pickaxes and other tools alongside the gravel landscape of the dry garden, with a small yellow trencher machine and a small tractor driven by another worker besides them. The construction takes place within the unbuilt enclosure of the dry garden, its concrete stilts visible around the workers.

A tractor drives between the stilts, away from the camera, dragging a tool with it and being watched by two workers. An excavator is visible at left between the stilts, and a white truck is parked at right next to a stack of timber.

Photograph of the Fuller Garden and the Leonard Courtyard at the Fort Worth Botanic Garden undergoing work. The courtyard's elevated concrete planters, with yellow shrubs and flowers planted inside, are visible in the lower left half of the image. The veranda of the Garden Center is visible on the left side of the image. Construction workers and gardeners, scattered across the garden, work on stone pathways embedded into the grass. A man in a hat gestures towards an empty patch of dirt to another worker. Work cars are parked across the edge of the image towards the background, covered by trees.
