Default Japanese gardening

Not to mention waaaaaay cheaper. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink!!!!

Any fool can take white gravel, a rock, a dead twig and a lantern and call
it a Japanese garden.......

But does that really make it one?

I don't think so.

waaaaay less is better. putting all the typical elements of a Japanese

garden into a
small space is grotesque. it takes courage to pick a single element and

let the rest
go. somebody on rec.ponds posted the cutest darn Japanese garden shed.

of a
Japanese garden cannot be applied to any garden. Simplicity, white space

as
important as foreground, etc. There are a great many books on the topic

and
many sites.
