For sometime I have been a fan of Japanese gardens. The flow, the focal points, the stone, the water and the wonderful trees. I, along with my family, live in The Woodlands, Texas. The local environment of east Texas lends itself to a Japanese garden style with our majestic pines, as well as palms and deciduous trees, availability of powerful stone and our unique weather. I have been studying the art of Japanese gardens, as well as the art of the garden tree, and am writing this blog to discuss the growth of my own Japanese garden, as well as discuss my fondness for this ancient style.

Front Yard - Fall

Japanese Garden Front Yard fall

This is a portion of my front yard.  It's not a very good picture considering the fact that my moss-rock stones appear washed out, when in actuality they are a dark redish orange color.

This picture is slightly better, although my cloud-pruned bushes are not in it.  My small crype myrtle is red, as it's in the middle of fall.
