Japanese Garden
Tuesday, August 21st, 2007While we have stayed for 15 years in Japan, a lot of things learned from there besides the culture, tradition and language, the part that we barely missed is Japanese Gardening. Although we went to so many temples and shrines, we mostly ignored the scenic beauties of Japanese Gardens. It is only now that our appreciation has sent us to the Home Depot and Lowes Stores to buy some needed stones and other gardening goods. We are restructuring our lawn to make it lovelier and have that Japanese touch of elegance. What made us do this is when we visited a long time friend in New Jersey, we saw their garden so elegant that me and my wife were so amazed and could only say that we want this too. As soon as we came back I contacted one of the landscaping companies in our area, who also is a family friend and talked some modifications for our garden. We are now in the planning stages and hopefully we could modify the structuring according to some photos we have gathered.


So it will take a while for planning this project but we do hope by next summer we could enjoy a cool Japanese Garden. Though its late already to start the modifications right now we bought some things already like some stones and seeds for the start of spring next year.
