Hi GPODers!<\/p>\n

I took some time off last week and was in need of some submissions to bridge the gap of my absence, so I asked our favorite garden traveler, Cherry Ong, to share some garden photos she has collected over the past couple of months. I hope you all enjoyed her photos of the Sunken Garden<\/a> at The Butchart Gardens<\/a> on Vancouver Island that were shared last week, as we are continuing a tour of this botanical wonderland in British Columbia with more of Cherry\u2019s fantastic photographs and her marvelous eye for moments of beauty in any garden. Today we\u2019re focusing on the Japanese Garden<\/a>, which was a feast of fabulous foliage in the final days of winter.<\/p>\n

Scenes from The Japanese Garden at The Butchart Gardens. Still my fave garden among all the garden rooms at Butchart\u2014any time of the year. The last two photos are of great interest to me at this visit\u2014the garden border edging has been renewed where needed and it is a work of art.<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/a>In late winter, the Japanese garden is more subdued than the bright foliage colors in the peak season, but bare branches and plenty of evergreens keep the space\u2014designed to emulate natural landscapes\u2014full of fascinating shapes and forms.<\/p>\n

\"small<\/a>If you\u2019re ever lucky enough to visit Japan, you will notice an abundance of pine trees and other types of conifers. Six different species of pine trees can be found in Japan, but one of most prevalently featured in Japanese gardens in the west is the Japanese black pine (Pinus<\/a> thunbergii<\/em>, Zones 5\u20138). The straight species can grow up to 60 feet tall, but there are also fabulous dwarf varieties and pruning techniques that keep these massive trees fit for smaller spaces.<\/p>\n

\"various<\/a>Along with the fantastic shapes and forms that can be admired in the late season, wonderful texture is on display in abundance.<\/p>\n

\"pergola<\/a>Japanese garden design looks to create miniature versions of lush natural landscapes, but it also encourages the use of man-made structures that provide protected spaces for peaceful contemplation.<\/p>\n

\"path<\/a>It is not hard to see why this is Cherry\u2019s favorite landscape in The Butchart Gardens. Without a flower in sight, and with plenty of branches still bare, there are layers upon layers of interest to be enjoyed around every corner.<\/p>\n

\"bamboo<\/a>Another gorgeous structure in the garden that is a perfect example of hardscaping done right. This pergola will support climbing plants in the peak season, creating some great vertical interest, while matching the natural aesthetic of the garden\u2019s design. It will likely blend in seamlessly when more plant growth emerges, but can be better admired in the late winter landscape.<\/p>\n

\"stepping<\/a>The marvelous moss that can be found in abundance in the Pacific Northwest is right at home in a Japanese garden. These large carpets of green might have you forgetting that these photos were taken in late winter!<\/p>\n

\"shrubs<\/a>We already saw one gorgeous example of cloud pruning (Niwaki) in the Japanese black pine, above, but this signature technique in Japanese garden design can be found throughout Butchart\u2019s Japanese Garden.<\/p>\n

\"new<\/a>Finally a look at that incredible edging that Cherry mentioned in her intro! Cut branches are not an uncommon material for bed edging, but this creative arrangement of various lengths piled together transform the edging into an artistic addition to this section of path.<\/p>\n

\"bamboo<\/a>And a closer look at that incredible edging!<\/p>\n

Thank you so much for sharing a wonderful array of garden photos with us, Cherry! Seeing these spectacular gardens through your lens is only bested by enjoying these spaces in person, and I\u2019m thrilled that we have three more days of your gorgeous garden photos revel in.<\/p>\n
