Although Japanese gardens are very beautiful, they are not the
norm in suburban Japan. The fact that most Japanese houses
occupy 95% of the land they sit on, eliminates the ability to
cultivate a substantial garden. So many people resort to pot
gardens like this one. A very beautiful example, too.

That's a nice shot, Ray, I really enjoy the strict and symetric lines of the building, and the contrast with the colorful much wilder arrangement of flowers and plants.

Thanks marlof. I have just started a series of these, and although this is the best one, you can take a look at the others here on Zenfolio. The original of this one looks better there, too.
