Create Your Aromatic Japanese Garden

A Japanese garden is not only about how a space looks. It is also about what you smell, touch, grow and notice.

Create Your Aromatic Japanese Garden explores this more sensory side of Japanese gardening, from plants such as shiso, sanshō and yomogi to the ideas of wabi-sabi and ma that influence the way a garden is composed and experienced.

The book also looks at traditional elements such as stones, water and lanterns, alongside natural gardening approaches inspired by Masanobu Fukuoka. The ideas can be adapted to anything from a balcony to a larger garden.

A practical introduction for anyone who wants to bring some of the plants, rhythms and atmosphere of Japanese gardens into their own space.
