I went to an amazingly gorgeous garden with my garden friends, the other day. I knew that place, but this was the first time to visit. It took only about one-hour car-ride form Tokyo.
どうしてもっと早くここに来なかったんだろ…
I should have visit here earlier!!!
The garden is mainly consist of wild flowers, herbs and grasses. Recently,this type of garden attracts me :)
It seemed to be devided into some sections by certain themes.
This area has yellow wild flowers. I was impressed that they planted only single-species. If I were a garden designer here, I would plant a lot kinds of flowers with diffrent colors.
And this section, called "Rock Garden" was my favorite! They planted mainly Siebold's stonecrops between the rocks on a slope, like a river.
At the bottom of the Siebold's stonecrop river, you can enjoy the ferns:)
Looove ferms! It's cool, isn't it?
Beyond the field of yellow flowers, there were mass of Feather Grasses combined with pink and purple flowers.
The forms and texture that Echinaceas and Feather Grasses created were wonderful!
Also love such a following shot, planted Linaria along the path, I'd like to get it in my garden, but it's too tall to plant in my small balcony..
It maybe a great effect to use only one or two colors of flowers in a designated area. I want to try to adopt this rule with my garden:)
After we enjoyed the view of the garden to our hearts' content, we had delicious lunch at the British style restaurant in the site!
I wanna come back here, soon!!
いやぁ〜、こんなに興奮したの久しぶり!ってくらい大興奮のお庭だった〜〜(≧▽≦)
また一緒に行こうねっ!!
ちかちゃんより…爆



That's an amazingly beautiful garden. I love the way they have carefully planned the colors. The sedum river is very special and I like that too.
ReplyDeleteI am so impressed to see this kind of garden in Japan.
Hi Keity,
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting the articles. I haven't even posted one place on my web log. Time flies like an arrow. We had such a good time!! We spent here so long and almost would be late for time to arrive at the next rose garden (笑) The place was amazing but your pictures makes this place even more special. Definitely want to come here again with same course.

Deleteホントに間に合わないかと思ってドキドキしちゃったね! アハハ、喋り過ぎだし〜〜^^; ここは予想以上に素晴らしくてアタシ好みのガーデンで、驚愕だった…((((((ノ゚⊿゚)ノ 連れて行ってくれてありがとー!!
What a beautiful place. I love this style of garden. Purple and yellow flowers are my two favorite colors together. That one photo was so beautiful that I did not notice that the flowers were only ONE color. If they last all summer that would be an easy style for elderly people to have. Great post, Keity!
