Japanese Zen Garden Bridge APPLICATION description
Designed to produce a 3-D effect of height and depth, a Zen garden is planned with foreground and background to draw one\'s focus. More harmony is achieved by balancing different colors, sizes, and\nshapes of flora, so no one plant overwhelms. Trees and larger shrubbery placed at the rear of your garden offer privacy and a natural backdrop. More feng shui tips for your Zen garden?
\nPlanting for your climate: Mosses, ground covers, ornamental grasses, hardy flowering blooms, shrubs, and focal point trees, in varied heights, colors, and textures, add lush vibrancy to your\ngarden. Drought-resistant plants thrive in a Zen garden\'s sandy areas and are perfect for low-rainfall zones. Mosses and low-maintenance ground covers serve to soften straight lines, such as\npre-existing walkways, and promote the flow of chi. Choose plants that will flourish in your region.
\nNature\'s Rocks: Rocks give dimension to a Zen garden. They reflect permanence and respect for the passing of time, while adding energy and emotion to your landscape. Select unique rocks and\nstones, organizing them according to their special characteristics and sizes; place them where best suited for your garden\'s flow. Choose smooth, well-worn stones for added appeal.
\nWater Features: All elements have a purpose in a Zen garden. Water features such as pools, ponds and fountains offer yin energy and encourage beneficial chi. Garden lighting to highlight special\nareas balances that with yang (male) energy. You get the idea. Water elements can include natural facets already in your landscape, i.e. a pre-existing stream or pond, or may be added - either\nnaturally or man-made. Sand and pebble formations can also be used to represent water: swirl sand with a rake or fingertips to create a rippling water effect - the swirls also promote the flow of chi\nin your garden. While sand areas are lovely, I prefer using them in tandem with actual water features for more dramatic appeal.
\nPaths and Walkways: Paths should never be straight, as chi energy is supposed to flow gently. A Zen garden craves meanderings and curves to soften straight lines and edging, because a curved path\nencourages chi to move more slowly and freely. If you already have straight paths, plant mosses to soften them; allow plants to grow over edges to help chi to circulate freely.
\nBridges: Most of us have seen the stock photo print or done a jigsaw puzzle of the Zen garden with the small red bridge spanning across a pond of water lilies - or was it lotus flowers?\nRegardless, bridges add beauty and evoke emotion to any type of garden and are one of the architectural elements most often added to a Zen garden. Employ them to span a water feature, to connect\ndifferent garden areas, and to offer access and views of your garden that would be unattainable otherwise.
\nFocal Points and Decorative Ornaments: These are other architectural features to enhance the atmosphere in your garden and create a sense of space. A hanging lantern, Buddha statuary, or mahogany\nwoodwork add to the feel of a Zen garden. A well-placed, unique boulder partially embedded in the earth and a few solar yard lights to complement your special features will add beauty in a holistic\nway.
