English term or phrase:boxed Arcadia
On a half-acre rectangle, the garden designer created a palimpsest of virgin forest: spruce, pin oak, holly, walnut and copper beeches are scattered nonchalantly on a blanket of crepe myrtle. Paving his boxed Arcadia with cobbled walkways, the designer gave the castle owners a gracious way of communing with nature and the impetus to bring home more of the antique statuary they had begun to collect. Today they spend as much time here with the old Romans as the blue jays do.
Explanation: Arcadia (di memoria virgiliana) era una terra dove tutto era armonia e poesia. Vedi i riferimenti all'Arcadia di Virgilio. Qui รจ come dire: la terra perfetta, il suo mondo bucolico. Lascerei senz'altro il riferimento classico.
