Beautiful pics DK!! Sensational!! Where abouts in Japan is it?
I went to a very ncie garden in Hiroshima, I might put some pics up alter

Nathan, this is the Ashikaga in Japan. Actually it's more like a public park there Please post your pics here!

Absolutely breathtaking breathtaking and breathtaking....what are their secrets I wonder...It's as though they have a magic wand that we westerners don't have!!!! If I was there you wouldn't be able to budge me. Makes our gardens and all the years we put into our plants look insignificant. I look out of my window and look at my garden and think " God Loretta, you're kidding yourself" Thank you for posting Kvan.
cheers Loretta

Loretta, you know what, we love our gardens more no matter how insignificant as at the end of the day, it's our gardens I think these wisterias have been ground-grown in the garden for years in the natural way - well almost natural. This is a good example that sometimes trees nutured by humans can reach their fullest potential that they may never be able to achieved otherwised. These wisterias are watered, pruned and fertilized regularly. They even have metal frames to support the branching of trees.
Cheers,

Hi Steven. I love photography but didn't take these myself. These are from the Ashikaga Flower Park in Japan. My uncle and his wife got the opportunity to visit it a couple years back. I would love to visit it sometime in the future too.
Cheers,
