takes years to build gardens. Obviously to do all this , you can do it in one season, but to have the gardens and plants all grow and establish and finally start doing their magic, takes many many years and gardens evolve a lot over time. So beautiful.
@@marcklonel6885 I came back from Japan in 1999 and went crazy on my yard! Bought a Hinoki Cypress, dwarf Lace Leaf Maple, black bamboo, dwarf mondo grass, Zoysia grass plugs to imitate islands and chicken and turkey grit at a local feed mill to imitate zen sand. I scoured construction sites for rocks with moss on them, found horsetail reed grass in a marshy area to imitate mini bamboo and bought a cement feminine Buddha and Toro lantern. I planted giant reed grass which when the wind blowed slapped together making a beautiful sound. I replaced a corner downspout off my porch with a “kusari-doi” (Rain chain; chain gutter). The hummingbirds would hover and drink from it! When the teachers and students from Japan came Andosensei took a photo to show one of my host teachers.😊
