Default Japanese gardening
(Michael Palmer) wrote in message . com...
I've been lurking for a bit now. This is a very informative
newsgroup. I have a question that I hope can be answered. What is it
that makes a "Japanese Garden" a true Japanese garden? There seems to
be many interpretations out there. Any sites to recommend me to with
pics? Thanks everyone.

If you take a Japanese gardener for a drive in the northeast US he
will be awestruck by the rock outcrops that occur where highway cuts
have been made.
Once these have been left alone for a while and get a few layers of
ferns and laurel they look just right. Trying to create one in a
garden is another matter.
