Various oriental elements can be seen in this garden, giving it a somewhat Japanese flavour. These include granite lanterns, topiary cloud trees (pines), stepping stones and pebbles. Japanese maples (acer palmatum) are often thought to require shady conditions, but as long as they get plenty of water and are not allowed to dry out, they will happily grow in full sunshine.
