No 3 of my japanese garden favorites is Murin-an. This is not a very big garden but it’s been very cleverly designed borrowing the landscape beyond. Feels like you are way out in the country side and not in the middle of busy Kyoto. A true oasis 💚

No 4 on my list of the best japanese gardens is Nanzen-ji. As with many temples there are several gardens here but it’s the inner pond garden that I love. Lots of water and winding paths with lovely design details to discover if you slow down your pace and look. More footage for subscribers 💚

By request I’m posting my top 5 japanese gardens 💚No 5 is Shoren-in and this is a kinder egg for you - 3 quite different gardens in one place. One in each side of this temple/villa. I love the woodland garden with the small pond and the one with an ancient pine tree really makes you humble. Really shows that you can make a unique and gorgeous garden even if it is small.

A waterfall with too much water can make you want to pee 😆. Getting that water sound just right is an art. This one, from the Murin-an Garden in Kyoto, is simply perfect 👌🏻.

Japanese gardens may look very orderly on the surface but if you look closer they are also naturalistic and little wild. I love it! The flower here is tricyrtis, one of few flower you see in japanese gardens.

Look at all those gorgeous moss varieties 💚 I prefer this over a golf green every day of the week, how about you?

Have your garden turned brown for the winter? How about investing in some leafy evergreens next summer instead of more flowers? Most gardens need more calming greens and less flowers in my opinion 😀 This is Pachysandra Terminalis (skuggröna), a great evergreen ground cover. Very hardy and also great in containers. Prefers some shade and moist but otherwise very versatile 👌🏻 More plant names for subscribers.

Not flowery, lush and green but still very beautiful ❤️ Beech (bok) is one plant that really shines through winter with its coppery leaves. Great as a hedge since it will provide privacy even though it is not evergreen. If you want more tips on great plants for the autumn and winter, you are welcome to subscribe 🙏🏻

One of the lesser-known gardens, attracting very few visitors is Toji-in. Magical to walk around a historical place like this totally alone 💚 This garden actually reminded me of the woods in Sweden. Mores pics for subscribers.

Another lovely moss garden in Kyoto - Shoren-in. But what makes this garden worth visiting is of course the pond! More pictures and information on what makes the pond turquoise for subscribers 💙💚

Times flies! It’s been a year now since my trip to Japan where I visited sooo many gorgous gardens. Thought I’d share some lovely memories with you. This is Honen-in, one of the many moss gardens in Kyoto. Look at all that gorgous moss on the roof and steps 💚

Happy Halloween! 👻 I always look forward to pumpkin carving and this year my nieces joined me 😍 Great fun but I’m a bit dissappointed on this year’s pumpkin - it was very stringy inside and hard to carv smoothly. Next year I will get two big ones so I have a backup…

We have a new member of our family - little Viggo 😍! He has already shown his digging skills so I expect him to help out in the garden next summer 😅 Viggo is an 8 weeks old labradoodle.

Did you know many autumn colors are muted in the moist warm air by the sea? Most plants need colder temperatures to turn red. Look at my Dodong mountain ash for example - never red here like in other places, just orange. The one plant you can count on for really vibrant autumn colors in any condition are acers ❤️ Plant names for subscribers.

Hostas are already brown while other plants are still lush and green or even flowering like the white Anaphalis triplinervis (ulleternell). If you want tips on plants that stay beautiful long into autumn you should subscribe.

Gardens need verticals and preferably high ones - you want high ceiling indoors right? Just a hedge is usually not enough, you need trees. This our native mountain ash, perfect as a high wall /ceiling by the fire pit 💛🧡❤️💚
