A stand of cape rush adds a semitransparent layer of privacy between sidewalk and front garden.
Joel Lichtenwalter and Ryan Gates of Grow Outdoor Design, based in Los Angeles, have introduced me to some really creative gardens they have designed. And what strikes me when seeing these mostly small, urban landscapes, is how well plants are used as architectural elements within the spaces they reside.
Designers Joel and his client Scott can be seen in the distance, conferring on some of the planting designs.
You won’t see fluffy cottage gardens with English-inspired perennial choices in Ryan and Joel’s gardens. Yet e

Garden
Staying at home lets you have more time with your family. You can really get the benefits of the special winter holiday to gather with the beloved ones. You are free from the office duties. You can relax. And you are not limited by the strict working rules like wearing formal dress and tight shoes. You can be whoever you are and also wear whatever you want to wear. Your boss won’t come to you and give you punishment when you are still wearing your pajama and a pair of sandals.

Japanese landscape design has become one of the most popular exterior design themes of contemporary day. There is something about a Japanese garden that invites peace and tranquility in your outdoor space. To create a Japanese landscape design, you will use the elements in nature you are provided with, and arrange them to reflect the peaceful reality you seek. Whereas Western gardens use more flora and fauna to create this harmony, a Japanese garden will use them in more natural and subtle ways.
For example, a tortoise statue believe it or not is a Japanese symbol that can add an incredible omen to your outdoor space. The tortoise is believed to be a symbol of immortality in the Eastern world, and when incorporated into a garden, provides support, good luck, and longevity to its owner.
Ponds and hills are also a common theme in Eastern gardens, as these represent tranquil elements of nature. You can use an Asian inspired outdoor garden water fountain to accomplish this goal, or create a pond in your outdoor area if you have the space. As well, religious outdoor statues are symbols of significance in Japan, and are used frequently for dwellers to invite blessings from the heavens into their indoor or outdoor space. A religious statue outside near your entrance will beckon the gods of your choice to bless peace on your garden and home.
When it comes to Japanese landscape design, Japanese principles and your imagination are all you need to incorporate the peace of mind you seek into your garden.
