- Japanese garden bridges can either be a beautiful alluring addition to a garden, or a cliché of exoticism. When designing your own Japanese garden or merely enjoying one, you should take into consideration the fact that Japanese gardens are meant to be a celebration of human creativity and nature that harmoniously fit together. Today we are going to talk about how this is done right, and how this done wrong if you are aiming for a Shizen style garden...

This is our first year in a new house and my first year of learning about gardening. I love your channel and that you talk about the symbolism of Japanese gardening and present it in such a calm and informative way.
I'm glad you like the channel! It's nice to have a blank canvas to play with. Take your time exploring all of the many options and styles out there.
👍🏼

Thank you as always for a sublime visual tour and gentle instruction
My pleasure!
Going to be placing stepping stones in the shallow bit of the pond I'm digging shortly. So nice to see all of the reference photos. :)
Nice! Do you have a solid clay base underneath, or something to help stabilize it?
Do you ever see a few strings spanning across a short section of the foot bridge? I saw one in a video on FB and wondered if it had a purpose or was put there in whimsy. People had to maneuver to walk through it.
I would be very interested in how bonsai is integrated in the Japanese garden culture. What I took from the previous videos is the impression that these two things don't belong together. But actually they should.
I haven't really seen them together that often. Maybe as a display on a pedestal near a seating area. The pruning and training are similar to what the gardener might be going for in a specimen tree in the garden, but they also have to envision the whole scene working together, not just the focus on a specimen tree like in bonsai.
@@ShizenStyle This brings me to a follow-up question: Do the Japanese actually make bonsai, and if so, where do they keep them if not in the garden? It is hard to imagine that two such "green" cultures, so deeply rooted in Japan, could be so unrelated.
