Plants demonstrate intelligence, albeit a non-zoological form. Advances in digital and physical computing technologies provide new avenues for developing a deeper engagement with this intelligence – an ideal space for the digital landscape architect. Morphology is both a fundamental expression of plant behavior and an important element of landscape architecture practice, providing a unique dialogistic medium. Cultivation, a practice historically associated within the discipline, could theoretically be renewed to this end: a Computational Cultivation. This paper seeks to frame this poorly defined area and identifies challenges and opportunities for research and application. A series of case studies that intersect digital technologies, traditional cultivation practices, and morphological behavior are explored. From these, a synthesis of possibilities, both applied and philosophical are constructed.
