Zen Theme

Zen gardens can be created in both sun and shade environments. The photos here demonstrate how this owner added her favorite plants, for a unique blend of styles. Typical Zen gardens incorporate bamboo, stone or granite fountains, boulders and sand – appearing more monochromatic. Often a meditation area is created with a simple bench. Accents like a pagoda or statuary add interest. Most people prefer to add plants with some color, such as heavenly bamboo (Nandina), grasses (Pennesetum), and daylilies (yellow, pink or red). Here are a few photos to give you an idea of this theme.
