Tsutsuji and Ikebana | ||
---|---|---|
This plot is designed in the style of Japanese garden landscaping. The name tsutsuji has a double meaning: in Japanese, the word for Rhododendrons, tsutsuji, is homophonic with the phrase for “walking hesitantly” and “wandering on a forking road”. Since Rhododendrons are best grown on slopes, the visual effect of a hillside is created by adorning the left and front of the garden with low fences and a gateway made from recycled tree trunks respectively, forming a curb with irregular rocks on the right, and finishing off with stepped slopes and a pair of push-open grilles. A quaint, old-style Japanese wooden house in muted colours is also recreated in the garden, featuring a sloping roof covered with moss, ferns, and muhly grass to mimic a mountain stream. The Rhododendrons are not only planted at the periphery of the garden, but also on the slope, and they stand out from the backdrop of maple trees and flowering bushes. As visitors take a stroll through the garden, they come to understand the beauty of ikebana, the Japanese art of flower arrangement. | ||
Blissful Togetherness | ||
---|---|---|
The owner meticulously crafts this back garden for his wife and daughter, so that the family can enjoy happy times together. Accentuated by other flowers from the four seasons, the clusters of Rhododendrons sparkle like stars and glitter by the pathway, creating a captivating scene. Aquatic plants are grown in the nicely built pool for insects to take shelter, and for the owner’s daughter to witness this wondrous symbiosis in nature. When the family sits and enjoys the Rhododendrons in full bloom, the flowers nestling snugly together, just as the three of them are, remind them to treasure such precious moments of blissful closeness. | ||
Together with Love | ||

An old carpenter’s wife is mobility-handicapped. Feeling sad to see his wife bedridden all day, the carpenter built a wooden wagon for taking her to the countryside to enjoy the fragrance of forest greens and florals, and embrace the tranquil and harmonious mood of nature. Sitting on the wagon, the couple can feast their eyes on the pristine landscape, savouring the lush vegetation and gorgeous flowers. The wooden wagon, overflowing with warmth and bliss, brings love to every corner. | ||
